Navy Pier

I had been to Navy Pier in Chicago the previous weekend, its a nice place to go around. It's a large pier on Lake Michigan near Streeterville, close to Chicago's downtown. The pier is designed as a shipping and entertainment area.

Originally known as the Municipal Pier nr 2, it is one of two piers called for in Daniel Burnham's 1909 Chicago plan. The other pier was never built.
