Crack! A roaring cheer muffles the ecstatic cry of the announcer’s amplified voice. The entire city block erupts in joy as a ball drops into the asphalt of West Waveland Avenue. Welcome to Wrigley field, one of the oldest ballparks in the country. Now you’re in Chicago, home to some of America’s biggest baseball fans, its tallest building and its deepest deep-dish pizza.

Chicago is the most active city, as well as the center of the Midwest. Hop on Lake Shore Drive and watch as this glistening waterside metropolis unfolds before your eyes. From the Art Institute at Grant Park to the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Science (home to Sue, the city’s beloved Tyrannosaurus Rex) to the architectural oasis of the Illinois Institute of Technology campus and Oak Park, Chicago is a world known cultural capital.

All these sites are clearly marked and indexed on the STREETWISE® Chicago city map. Also included are an enlarged detailed map of the downtown, an area map that includes the major routes and surrounding towns of Chicago and a map of the Metra system.

5 out of 5 stars streetwise map   November 9, 2006

Great series of maps for residents and tourists. Very detailed but extremely compact (though still legible), laminated, folds easily. It can be used quite subtly, so you don't look lost (giving the apperance of a goofy out-of-towner, or worse, a safety issue.)

Chicago Streetwise features:
-Main map (north to Lakeview, south to Hyde park, west to Ukranian Village)
-Downtown map
-neighboring counties road map
-Hyde Park/Kenwood detail
-CTA/Metra train lines
-street and landmark index

On the main map, it identifies train stops (but unfortunately no busstop info, which may be helpful), street numbers, various important buildings (landmarks, colleges, some hotels, etc.).

If you are planning on visitng Chicago, or have just moved to the area, look no further than this map.



5 out of 5 stars Streetwise Chicago Map is Excellent!!!!!!!   January 13, 2009

I give Streetwise maps to friends who travel. Your maps are the optimal size, and they don't get wet when it rains or snows. Your Chicago map is exceptionally great. I lived there 20 years, and used my Streetwise map often. Sometimes, I even give them as gifts to perplexed (and very grateful) strangers visiting Chicago - so I've bought several over the years.


5 out of 5 stars 2008 edition is excellent   January 17, 2009

make sure you have the newest version of this map. the city changes so quickly that older maps become irrelevant. i walked the city with my boyfriend and the 2008 streetwise and we loved it. very easy to read and the 3-Ds of buildings was so helpful in a big, congested city. one time we thought we were lost but then looked at the map and realized that we were at the back side of the Chicago Museum of Art. we would have gone back to our hotel if we hadn't been able to figure out what street the entrance was on.

excellent map, only one with 3-D building details and current public transit info. get the 2008 edition, it is the most current of all the maps per the concierege at our hotel.

This is a fantastic map. I have used Streetwise maps when I have traveled other cities in the past. I found it to be incredibly helpful in getting around the city to see all the sites. It is clearly marked and compact to fit easily in my pocket. The transit information in the text is a great feature. It also held up amazingly in all types of weather I experienced. If you are going to Chicago I highly recommend this map.

I recently purchased this map for a summer trip to Chicago. Although we had other devices it was this map that got us in and out of the city everyday. We found it to be very accurate and easy to use, we preferred it over the map that was provided at the hotel and it was awesome for the theatre district. We liked it so much we purchased Artwise for our gallery visits and loved that also. very convenient and accurate!
