The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) logo is displayed beneath the steel elevated tracks that define the Loop, the city’s central business district. The structure, part of the “L” system first built in the late 19th century, remains one of Chicago’s most enduring symbols of urban mobility. Overhead girders and riveted beams—many still original to the early 1900s—carry trains above streets lined with early skyscrapers and historic facades. The CTA continues to operate one of the largest and oldest public transit networks in the United States, moving more than a million riders daily through Chicago’s interconnected system of rail and bus lines.

The illuminated marquee of the Jewelers Center glows along South Wabash Avenue in Chicago’s historic Jewelers Row District. Located at 5 S Wabash, this 1920s-era Art Deco building is home to more than 180 independent jewelers and gem traders, many specializing in custom design and repair. The tower, part of the landmark Mallers Building, stands within the Loop’s long tradition of craftsmanship and trade that dates back to the city’s early commercial boom. At night, the neon-lit sign continues to evoke Chicago’s mid-century downtown energy, linking the modern financial core with its industrial and artisanal past.

The Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) headquarters in downtown Chicago, Illinois, represents the global reach of one of the world’s largest agricultural and food processing corporations. Founded in 1902, ADM moved its main offices to Chicago in 2014 after more than a century in Decatur, Illinois. The company plays a major role in grain trading, oilseed processing, and biofuels, influencing commodity markets and global food supply chains. Its Chicago location, near the Chicago River and the city’s historic financial district, reflects the enduring link between Midwest agriculture and the global commodities trade that has long defined Chicago’s economic identity.

The ArcelorMittal Indiana Harbor steel mill in East Chicago, Indiana, is one of the largest integrated steelmaking facilities in the United States. The complex traces its origins to the Inland Steel Company, founded in 1893, and its massive brick headquarters—seen here—was built in the early 20th century to symbolize industrial power along Lake Michigan. Today, the plant remains a cornerstone of American steel production, encompassing multiple blast furnaces, coke batteries, and finishing lines. Now operated by Cleveland-Cliffs following its 2020 acquisition of ArcelorMittal USA, Indiana Harbor continues more than a century of continuous steelmaking on Chicago’s industrial lakeshore.

The bright red mural on the side of Rainbow Chinese Restaurant at 2739 Nicollet Avenue anchors Minneapolis’s iconic “Eat Street” corridor. Painted in bold geometric letters spelling “Minneapolis,” the work was designed to celebrate the neighborhood’s cultural diversity and long history as a hub for immigrant-owned restaurants. The panda motif and stylized lettering nod to the restaurant’s founder, Tammy Wong, whose establishment has been a local fixture since 1987. The mural, illuminated at night by warm overhead lighting, has become a recognizable landmark symbolizing the creative and culinary energy of Eat Street in the Whittier neighborhood.

The Lakewood Cemetery Memorial Chapel in Minneapolis, completed in 1910 and inspired by Byzantine architecture, stands as one of Minnesota’s most significant funerary landmarks. Its interior mosaics—crafted with over ten million pieces of Venetian glass—were modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. The surrounding landscape, designed in the late 19th century, reflects the “garden cemetery” movement that emphasized serenity and park-like beauty. Today, Lakewood remains both an active cemetery and a public green space, connecting generations through its art, architecture, and memorial traditions.

The Lakewood Cemetery Garden Mausoleum, completed in 2012 and designed by Joan Soranno and John Cook of HGA Architects, represents a modern counterpart to Lakewood’s historic chapel. Built into the natural slope of the cemetery grounds, the structure uses gray granite and white mosaic marble to evoke quiet reflection and permanence. Its minimalist form and interplay of light were conceived to harmonize with the surrounding landscape of Lake Calhoun (Bde Maka Ska). The mausoleum extends Lakewood’s 150-year tradition of blending architecture, art, and remembrance within a park-like setting in south Minneapolis.
