Chicago skyline
Willis Tower vista
The Chicago skyline is the distinctive profile of tall buildings visible against the sky, viewed from a distance.
Chicago's skyline is among the most recognized in the world, featuring early skyscrapers and modern towers along Lake Michigan.
The term often evokes the city itself: The Chicago skyline emerged through the morning haze as we drove in from the suburbs.
