About Chicago

Chicago has many nicknames, including "The Windy City" and "The Second City." We’ll admit to an occasional gust of wind, but there’s nothing second-echelon about Our Town. A center for commerce and trade, Chicago offers its residents and visitors a wide variety of museums, galleries, and theaters; historic architecture; public and performing arts; recreation and sports (how about a hand for those World Series champs, the Chicago White Sox?); Two Chicago landmarks will serve as host to the Opening & Closing Ceremonies of Gay Games VII: Soldier Field & Wrigley Field, respectively. Chicago is also home to one of the most beautiful lakefronts you’ll ever see; some of the finest restaurants in the world; and an international reputation for tolerance and diversity. To invoke another Chi-Town nickname, we truly are "The City That Works."
