If any ppruners visit the Chicago area, I highly recommend a visit to Meigs Field, a GA airfield built on Lake Michigan, just 10 minutes walk from downtown.
Base leg for Rwy 18 heads straight towards the skyscrapers, giving a magnificent view of the Windy City.
The first photograph shows the view from the South.
The airfield is threatened with closure in 2002 to make way for a park (!)
