Activity itinerary

Historic Water Tower

  • 5m
One of the only structures to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, this limestone landmark marks the heart of what would become the most contested and bloodiest turf in Prohibition-era Chicago.

Holy Name Cathedral

  • 15m
This stunning Catholic cathedral, dedicated in 1875, still bears physical evidence of a 1926 machine gun ambush that cut down one of Al Capone's most feared rivals just steps from its entrance.

Richard H. Driehaus Museum

  • 10m
This Gilded Age mansion illustrates the extraordinary legitimate wealth flowing through River North — a sharp contrast to the illegal fortunes being made on the very same streets.

Chicago's North Shore

  • 5m
Former Location of the Celano Tailor Shop What appeared to be an ordinary tailor shop served as a key meeting point for Outfit members, where the line between legitimate business and organised crime quietly disappeared.
