Chicago City Hall is home to the Chicago City Council and Cook County offices. It is surrounded by Randolph Street, La Salle Street, Washington Street and Clark Street. It is 11 floors high and has a classical revival style. It was put into use in 1911. The entrance to Chicago City Hall is lined with four granite reliefs representing four major issues of concern to the city: sports fields, schools, parks and water supply. A rooftop garden was established in 2001 and opened to the public in the summer.

    Are you reviewing City Hall? Yeah, I am. First of all, I'm saying we didn't actually go to Cook County City Hall. The only reason we went was that both my fiancé and I were Blues brothers, and we felt you couldn't go to Chicago and see where Jack and Elroy were running from law enforcement in almost the entire city of Chicago. We walked through the revered Richard J. Daley Square and “see where they got Picasso” and walked straight into Cook County Town Hall. I was surprised there were no metal detectors, but there were signs that there were no guns, which was right, guys, just please don’t have weapons. Maybe there's a metal detector upstairs? It's great to be able to walk around. We didn't go to the assessor's office. But it's probably lunchtime, so he might be back in five minutes. We asked a police officer if there were any signs or plaque dedicated to the Bruce brothers, and we asked the officer if there was any oversight before giving us a blank stare? The officer came over and talked to us. Very nice lady. She was unfortunate to tell us there was no sign (which was disappointing), but she was able to share some gossip about how they made the film and where they were filmed. Some facts we knew, some new facts, but we enjoyed the visit. Even if you're not a fan of the Blues Brothers, the interior is gorgeous, the architecture is beautiful, and everyone is very nice and polite to us. We were there the whole time worried and worried, we would get kicked out or yelled for taking pictures, but most of the staff preferred to give us information. Maybe they should start travelling to the Bruce Brothers or Alcapone.

    The weather is getting colder every day, Chicago is also relatively cold, the temperature is not worse than New York, come to the City Hall, you can also take a look at the city center, it is quite good. More happy.

    Chicago City Hall is a neoclassical building. The three-dimensional hanging sculptures at the entrance of the building represent four aspects that Chicago government attaches most to: playgrounds, schools, parks and water systems. The garden was built on the roof of the town hall in 2001 to experiment with the inhibition of the urban heat island effect by roof greening.

    可以自由进去的,在这里你可以体会到自由民主,东面是个广场,有时有集市,街头艺人的演唱都是高水准的。
