Navy Pier
Recreation
4 blks
Navy Pier was opened to public in 1916 and at the time it was the largest pier in the world, at 292 feet wide and 3000 feet long. Its location is on is Lake Michigan near Streeterville, very close to Chicago's downtown. Originally named the Municipal Pier nr 2, the pier should have been accompanied by another one, according to Daniel Burnham's 19909 Chicago plan, but the second one was never built. Initially, the pier was meant for shipping and entertainment, but throughout the years it was also used for military purposes. However, the success it registered in the first decade started to decline in the late 1920s, as the open movie theatres and transportation by trucks began to steal the show. The pier received its current name in 1927, honoring the World War I veterans. During the World War II the Navy Pier was actually put to use for naval training operations. Later on, the Chicago branch of the University of Illinois took over, but in 1965 it moved and left the Pier to decay.
