If you enjoy Chicago history, then join us for this fascinating book review and discussion with author and journalist Patrick T. Reardon as he discusses his book The Loop. He’ll discuss how the elevated structure gave its name to the downtown, linked together Chicago’s transportation grid, gave the city a center that served all Chicagoans and saved the downtown when those in other cities withered.

Registration required. Open to all.
