With this hour-long tour, you will not only see some of the world’s first skyscrapers, but you will also get insight into how their designs and technologies have changed over time.

A short walk through Chicago’s Loop will focus on a classic skyscraper from each major era, ranging from the early masonry tall buildings to the super-tall 21st Century high-rises.

The Skyscraper Walk Through Time will give you the inside scoop about how architects adapted architectural styles to meet the fashion of the times as well as how they used advanced technology to make the buildings taller than ever.
