Architecture Lecture: Chicago Rebuilt: Seeing Yesterday's City Today

There are ghosts of the past all across the city of things that put Chicago on the map but we can no longer enjoy. After the great fire of 1871, Chicago became the hub of innovation and new ideas as architects from across the country came to the city to rebuild. Author Ryan Chester (Chicago architect and Adjunct Professor at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee and SAIC) will lead the evening's lecture with engaging stories from his soon-to-be-released new book Chicago Rebuilt: Seeing Yesterday's City Today.
