Chicago Architecture Legacy of Northalsted tour
Shawncago,15 thg 6, 2026
- Đánh giá từ Tripadvisor
5.00I just went on a 90-minute walking tour in the Northalsted neighborhood of Chicago, formerly known as “Boystown”, led by the Chicago Architecture tour guide Rene Cantu. This area of Chicago is one of the biggest and most vibrant LGBTQ+ neighborhoods in the country, and Rene did an excellent job of highlighting the architecture of the 'hood, both new and old, and tying it into the history of the LGBTQ+ community and their contributions to the neighborhood for over 100 years. Highlights include the rainbow pylons that help define the neighborhood and the Legacy Walk plaques installed on them; the Center on Halsted, a state of the art community center focused on the LGBTQ+ population, but offering programs and services for the whole community. The space includes a theatre, multiple gymnasiums, a computer lab, art galleries, meeting spaces, cafes and comfortable common areas; the Howard Brown Medical Center set on Halsted in the heart of gay nightlife; and mostly, the stories of the people who willed this neighborhood in to being, as well as those who still work to make a vibrant, safe and prospering environment for the whole population. Rene led us on about a mile of walking. It was a lovely summer stroll in Chicago, sandwiched between Wrigley Field and Lake Michigan. If you would like to feel some Pride, not just in the month of June, I highly recommend this excellent excursion.

5.00We really love the Chicago Architecture Center tours and lately , we’ve been focusing on neighborhood tours. We’ve had tours of Pilsen, Uptown, Hyde Park, Wicker Park, Beverly, Old Town and the Gold Coast. All have been superb. We just went on the Bohemian National Cemetery tour this weekend and it was outstanding. We highly recommend the CAC tours if you are interested in history, architecture and culture.

4.00While the tour was interesting, headphones would have been very helpful to hear what the docent was saying. There was a lot of street noise so instead of being able walk around a bit and look at the buildings, we all huddled close to hear what was said.

5.00We had an amazing experience on the architecture tour with the Chicago Architecture Center! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire tour engaging from start to finish. One thing we really appreciated was the use of earbuds—it made it so easy to hear everything clearly, even in the noisier parts of the city. If you’re visiting Chicago and want to truly understand its architecture and history, I’d highly recommend booking a tour with them. Definitely a highlight of our trip!
Very interesting. Kenneth was amazing
