Natural beauty and a bustling urban environment converge in Chicago to make it a striking American city. Chicago’s soul resides in its man-made canyons, cliffs and peaks—structures that speak to the city’s "I will" spirit. The drama of its skyscrapers is revealed from the bridges lining the winding Chicago River and on the shores of Lake Michigan, where urban steel and stone meet the natural beauty of this great lake. Chicago’s many moods—the sparkling spirit of its architecture and people as well as the grittier, street-smart energy evident here—add to the complexity and strength of the city. From the grace and culture of its museums to its love of sports, music and art, from the diversity of design styles and legendary architecture to the bustle of daily life, Chicago is a city of action and beauty. The Chicago 2007 Calendar, with photographs from the Chicago Tribune archives, captures this beauty and vibrancy and is a must-have for anyone who shares a love for Chicago.
