Shoreline Architecture Cruises

Join Shoreline on an exciting journey as we tour the Chicago River and its architectural landmarks. Our experienced and entertaining guides recount the dramatic story of Chicago's rise from the Great Fire of 1871 to become the home of the skyscraper and the cradle of modern American architecture.

 

Along the one-hour route are buildings by world-famous architects including Mies van der Rohe, Skidmore Owings & Merrill and Helmut Jahn.  Shoreline Architecture Cruises depart from our convenient Ogden Slip location by Navy Pier, directly south of Lake Point Towers on Illinois Street.
