Bird's Eye View of Chicago 1893 Featured The cities and main routesBird's Eye Of View Chicago, 1893 A fine sketch bird's eye view of the city as part of the promotion for the great World's Fair of 1893. This and some lithograph shows the position of the Fair grounds at the south end of the city, and the boat lines that would ferry along the shoreline to "Lake Park and U. S. Government Harbor", roughly what is today's Grant Park. A ride careful to give the most flattering view of the town. Green colors the park system
