would love to have you. When the speakers are not speaking, I will be hanging out in the hospitality suite, at the host hotel where the speakers will be. Stop in to say hello and have some refreshments & food.
Sights to see, if you enjoy architecture, you must take the River Boat Architectural Tour of Chicago. The boat is docked on the Chicago river, about 2 blocks east of Michigan Ave, 2 blocks south of Grand ave. The North Pier Building, near Dick's Last Resort. Essentially near the foot of Navy Pier. The tour dosiants are Unv of IL Chicago Campus architecture students. They will focus mainly on the dozens of 500 to 1000 ft building built in the last 10 years. I was amazed. Some are best seen from the river. The State of IL building, the Sky Bridge in the west Loop. Dozens of Skidmore-Owens projects and the list goes on. Don't forget, Trump Tower is now at about 50 stories, on its way to 100+. Yeah, you go right under the Sears tower, but that is so 1970. Really a great tour, weekends from about 10 am to 5 pm. Not cheap $40. But well worth it.
Hope to see you Ki
Leo
