Families from Colorado to New York and as far South as Tennessee and Oklahoma joined CMASAS in Chicago for our first Regional Gathering since 2019 due to the pandemic. We boarded a boat and toured the city via the Chicago River, learning about the city’s architectural history. We had magnificent views of the city’s skyline from the various branches of the Chicago River, viewing buildings such as The Tribune building, John Hancock Building (renamed in 2018 to simply 875 North Michigan Avenue), Sears Tower (renamed in 2009 to The Willis Tower), and more recent designs such as The Trump International Hotel and Tower completed in 2009, and the St. Regis Hotel (Formerly the Wanda Vista Tower). Afterwards, we walked a short distance to Giordano’s Pizza to enjoy Chicago-style Deep Dish Pizza and provide an opportunity for the students to visit.
