The nickname "The Second City" was intended as a slight by writer and proud New Yorker A.J. Liebling, but taken another way, it inadvertently captures one of the town's greatest legacies: its ability to rebuild and reinvent itself.

Skyscrapers loom large here, including the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) and the Chicago Board of Trade. Food Delivery | Restaurant Takeout | Order Food Online | GrubHub. Wikipedia.
