Old Water Tower Chicago
The Old Water Tower Chicago is a historic landmark that was built in 1869 and survived the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. It is one of the few buildings that remain standing from the pre-fire period and is now a tourist attraction in the Magnificent Mile shopping district. The tower, which is made of limestone, was originally used to hold a water supply for fighting fires. It now houses the City Gallery, which showcases Chicago-themed exhibits for free. The tower stands at 154 feet tall and has a castle-like appearance that makes it a unique feature in the modern city landscape.
Visitors to the Old Water Tower Chicago can take a self-guided tour of the tower and view the exhibits inside. The gallery is located on the second floor of the tower and features photographs, paintings, and sculptures by local artists. On the first floor, visitors can find a small gift shop that sells souvenirs related to the tower and the city.Nearby landmarks include the John Hancock Center, the Tribune Tower, and the Chicago River. You can combine a visit to the tower with a walk along the Magnificent Mile, where you can find luxury retailers, restaurants, and hotels. The tower is also a short distance from Navy Pier, which offers family-friendly attractions like the Chicago Children's Museum, the Centennial Wheel, and an IMAX theater.
