Chicago, also refered to as Old Chicago, was among the largest cities on Earth, and served as capital of the Solarian League as well as headquarters for its governing body, the League Assembly.
By the 20th Century PD, its buildings were towers with hundreds of stories, some of them rising from the very bedrock of Lake Michigan. (HH13)
It had a public transportation train system and was built in layers with a substantial underground. The old quarter was called "the Loop", although the reason for that name had been obscured by the ages.
Berry Zilwicki and her brother Larens were inhabitants of the old quarter until they were adopted and brought to Manticore by Anton Zilwicki in the aftermath of the 1914 PD Manpower Incident. (HHA3.3: FtH)
