Illinois Route 66 - Chicago






Old Route 66 begins in front of the Art Institute at Adams and Michigan, so go inside and enjoy some art. Take a stroll to the fountain in nearby Grant Park, then go ride the elevator to the top of the Sears Tower (or whatever they call that building today). After that, walk north on State Street and enjoy the skyscrapers, with the really neat ones clustered around the Chicago River. When your feet get tired, find a Red Line station on State and take the train to the North Side to see a Cubs game at Wrigley Field. Photographs: The Chicago River, Wrigley Field, and a building being hit by a laser beam from the planet Mongo.
