Walking Tour | History of the South Loop
The South Loop has seen it all: railroads, vice, political corruption, fire, Printers Row, abandonment, and historic buildings—several of which have been repurposed for condo living.
Join us for a stroll through Chicago's most colorful, historically rich neighborhood with local Chicago historian Greg Borzo.
Meet at Harold Washington Public Library, 400 S. State Street; the tour is about 1.5 miles with sites and commentary all along the way.
Tour also includes free admission to the Chicago History Museum, good for one week from tour date.
Greg Borzo is an award-winning writer, speaker, and historian whose books include Chicago’s Fabulous Fountains, Where to Bike Chicago, Lost Restaurants of Chicago, and The Chicago “L.” Borzo holds a master’s degree in journalism from Northwestern University and has worked as a full-time writer at Modern Railroads Magazine (Editor-in-Chief), The Field Museum (Science Writer), and the University of Chicago (News Officer), among other roles.
