Join us as we explore how Chicago’s history and future are linked to Lake Michigan and Chicago’s great rivers.

I live on the Lake and work on the River. Both are so dynamic and beautiful. Can't imagine being anywhere else on Earth.

That's Lake Michigan. It's big, but it's freshwater, so it's a lake.
