Sunday's San Francisco Chronicle ran a travel article that describes Chicago as "the one American city where architecture lovers can indulge ourselves with abandon and never feel jaded." The text is fine, and even locals might find the the run-down of ten important structures useful for planning a leisurely Saturday afternoon.
