Chicago Architecture Center River Cruise

We have booked a 4:00 pm boat departure for a 1.5 hour cruise (we'll meet at 3:30 pm Central Time)
Boarding time is 3:45 pm – Meeting location (boarding passes / tickets to be distributed at dock): 
Northeast corner of Michigan Ave. and E. Wacker Dr.
Look for the black awning marking the stairway entrance.

For more than 25 years, the CAC's expertly trained docent volunteers have led the CAC River Cruise, sharing fascinating stories behind more than 50 buildings along the Chicago River. Hear how Chicago grew from a small settlement into one of the world's largest cities in less than 100 years. In just 90 minutes, you'll get the best overview of Chicago’s architecture and its history.

Upon completion of the Cruise and return to the dock, we’ll proceed via a short walk along the Riverwalk to Chicago Brewhouse Riverwalk (33 Riverwalk Chicago) for a networking / reception with apps and drinks beginning at approx. 5:45 pm (Central Time) until approximately 8:30 pm.
