Navy Pier is one of the must see place in Chicago, if you are visiting Chicago and not going to Navy Pier than you are loosing the major attraction in Chicago. It is on the banks of Lake Michigan. It offers various water cruises ranging from sailing ship and has a largest Ferris wheel which can show you the sky view of Chicago skyline.Navy pier Chicagohttp://www.windycitychicago.net/navy-pier-chicago-2.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-30183443866344196992011-01-22T17:01:10.495+01:002011-01-22T17:01:10.495+01:00From 1946 until 1965 Navy Pier also housed the cam...From 1946 until 1965 Navy Pier also housed the campus for the University of Illinois-Chicago. My Dad attended school there. Although currently Navy Pier is largely a tourist destination (it has some of the shtick of SF's Pier-39 ) there is also the Chicago Shakespeare Theater (not a bad seat in the house) and some great restaurants. Chicago's public radio station WBEZ broadcasts from Navy Pier and there is a children museum. I like to take out of town visitors to Navy Pier for lunch or dinner at Riva for the TERRIFIC views of the city...chicagoannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002095669236091951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-9546137243076488982011-01-18T08:22:26.583+01:002011-01-18T08:22:26.583+01:00jean, I've never really explored it, but I und...jean, I've never really explored it, but I understand there's a lot to see and do.
