If you’ve lived in or visited an older home or apartment building in Chicago, chances are it has an odd door or some other quirky feature that seems out of place. What can these features tell us about the way people once lived? bit.ly/2z1NJDN pic.twitter.com/yjCm355DDF

Chicago has some bone-chilling winters—our low temperatures during last year’s polar vortex even made international news. If you’ve endured at least one season of this region’s dangerous cold, then you know you can never be too prepared. bit.ly/2TkHK4K pic.twitter.com/OKpqGyHdgH

When business and the arts collide, beautiful architecture can emerge. The Auditorium Theatre is the result of collaboration between civic leaders who envisioned a building that might make opera and the arts accessible to people in every income bracket. bit.ly/2WpRn4N pic.twitter.com/ycU90G5EnO
