Chicago 2nd 2014 | Page 3

Chicago is an interesting place and many people live there. It was founded in 1833 by Yankee businessmen. Despite a fire in 1871 that destroyed the central business district, the city grew exponentially, becoming the nation’s rail centre. The city was a magnet for European immigrants, after that the Mexicans started arriving after 1910 and Puerto Ricans after 1945. The city formed the political base for national leader of the Democratic Party, now in power.

Finally, in my opinion Chicago is a city where you can go and have fun either in summer or in winter, there are many activities for these two seasons, also you can learn about this city and its wonderful history.
