Downtown Chicago looks like a combination of downtown Boston (my hometown) and New York City. Seems very beautiful and charming, I hope to visit one day. Thank you for this lovely video.
Beautiful city, enchanted. Beautiful footage, good choice of time, lighting, just perfect. At first, his videos allow us to travel from the comfort of home, but in fact they make us want to travel even more to discover these places. Great job. From Brazil.
Chicago is a city known for its tall buildings, skyscrapers, and incredible bridges. Downtown Chicago refers to the Central Area of Chicago, which is also sometimes called The Loop, and is comprised of 35 blocks. The Loop is famous for its urban vibe and dynamic architecture
Architecture? Hell yes. But baby what “bridges” are Chicago known for? I’ve been there plenty of times and cannot think of even one. 🤔 This had to be written by someone FROM Chicago because I promise no one outside of Chicago thinks this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is actually not accurate. So downtown is like 7-10 neighborhoods including the loop, mag mile, streeterville, new east side, south loop, west loop, river north, etc. The Loop is just one section of downtown. The whole downtown area, though, comprises the skyline and is about 8-10 square miles total.
Was in this city last week, my brother took me to visit his youngest son and to look around. First time went to the Museum when I was nine, WOW. Like going to a movie and seeing a city in a SIFI movie.
The skyscrapers that can be seen in the distance from the highway give me shivers... I felt the same emotions when I was in New York, I will also visit Chicago ❤
I’m from New York n live in Philadelphia now n yes Chicago is beautiful but center city in Philadelphia is very beautiful not sure why you say that I’m guessing that’s your opinion
Philly mob legends 90s-90s Not saying its positive but its big history man And hey!!the Flyers 1970s-1988!!! Bro Thats as big as the Montreal Canadians entertainment wise.
As a former resident of Sprawling Business Park, TX (aka Dallas/Ft. Worth) I am so impressed with cities like Chicago which have actual rhyme and reason to their skylines. Truly an American treasure of a city. Would love to see an updated version to showcase all the new buildings!
Getting skyscrapers approved is an extremely tenuous process for this reason. From residential views, to block lighting, to skyline aesthetic, zoning, and purpose, getting a skyscraper to the building phase is a seriously major undertaking. There are literal wikipedia articles filled with "unbuilt Chicago." It's definitely worth checking out.
Good city planning not only requires a lot of regulations but also regulations designed in a way so that they coalesce into a cohesive vision for a city. That is the trick. Chicago city planners were willing to work with those from around the world in order to make it work. This occurred in the wake of the Great Chicago Fire in the mid 1800s and is mostly responsible for how the city looks today!
my favorite city i've ever seen, visited like 4 different times in my short life and It's just so breathtaking every time with so much to do and all kinds of different environments❤❤
I've been to a few places, and Chicago is the "biggest" and "fastest moving" feeling city I've ever visited. Even bigger and faster than New York in terms of feel. Chicago just seems soooo grand when you're downtown, that when you come back home to your city, it makes it seem like you live in the countriest place ever. It's all due their amazing architecture and layout. NYC is just a bunch of tall buildings packed tightly together, to the point you don't feel the grandeur of the buildings; it feels more cluttered than anything. When I was in NYC, it just seemed dirty, honestly. (I love NYC, 2nd favorite city in America, next to New Orleans, so no hate). Chicago has the river flowing through downtown, which allows you to see the buildings in their entirety. Also, downtown Chicago has the perfect sized streets, which also aids to the grandeur of the buildings. Outside of the downtown area of Chicago, it's not so pretty, in my opinion, but downtown Chicago is top two, and it ain't two!
@@Elguapo93, New Orleans is my favorite city I've ever visited. Chicago's DOWNTOWN is top two, and it ain't two. Meaning, Chicago has the best DOWNTOWN I've seen.
Even without much traffic, those idiots on the road were already pissing me off. Two cars within 10 minutes already drove through a red light, and another one switched lanes within 5 feet from the car in front on the highway. Relaxing my ass.
Beautiful city. I've always wanted to visit Chi-Town. They have some awesome museums and visit Millennium Park. Of course, summer is the best time to go. Winters are too brutal.
As a former south side chicago resident, China town is so fucking cool dude I recommend you try out little village its like china town but Mexican just as great. Houses some of the best mexican food in the city imo.
At minute 14:27 of the video, it's something I should be worried about. In the foreground the vehicle disappears but the car in the background is still in the image #fright
It’s a case of it being a cloudy early morning around Christmas time. If you want to see Chicago at its best look up videos of it in the Summer during the day or at night!
Yay you came back to Chicago! :) I've been waiting for you to go to South Korea and China! Also a new one of Seattle. I literally watch your videos all day long. You do such a good job filming!
Hey J Awesome work as always It is possible to make a video where you explain the process and the planning that goes to your video? That would be great
I live out in the suburbs, I have visited Chicago before. But I’d like to more often. I actually have a model car of a 2000 Chevrolet Impala with Chicago’s Yellow Cab Company livery on it. And some of my models have custom made Illinois license plates on them.
I have a stupid question. Do people for the most part just go there for business etc or do a lot of people live in the city, and if so where do they get groceries & stuff? Seems like it would be daunting.
Хорошая была езда на скорости! Вы видно вбежали с юга, хорошо показали побережье Мичигана справа и Небоскребы видимо старинной постройки очень Интересный Город Спасибо Приятной была прокатка!!! Как Всегда Счастливой Дороги!!!💓👍🌈 описка Вьежали с Юга.
Oh Chicago is so gorgeous.
Chicago is such a beautiful city. So nice to be so close to it
Beautiful! Usually the expressways are packed. You picked a nice lucky day free of awful traffic
Clean roads and high visibility, these are what impress me most.....from Chicago, IL

Chicago is my favorite city in us
Perfect timing: beat the traffic, and get great views of the city! Great video!
I love this cities architecture and landscape, despite the problems. Might want to go visit here someday.
Mason fan lol. You wish noob
Meanwhile check out my Chicago playlist. I have videos of the city life of the four different seasons
Mark H, ALL cities have problems.
@@thebabbler8867 Chicago problems never seem to get any better. As some one born and raised there for 25 years it’s disheartening. I eventually moved.

why did you feel the need to post the same comment twice from two different accounts?

Damn, Chicago's downtown is BEAUTIFUL and puts my city (Philadelphia) downtown to shame. It's like a smaller less congested New York.
I’m from New York n live in Philadelphia now n yes Chicago is beautiful but center city in Philadelphia is very beautiful not sure why you say that I’m guessing that’s your opinion
@tratallere I was just being dramatic to make a point! As a Philadelphia native, I agree, Philly is beautiful!
I gotta say though Downtown Philly has a lot of potential.
@@pizzaearthpancakesandother2549Philadelphia seems like hell on earth and I'm not even American. Like jeez zombie drugs are crazy man

Not saying its positive but its big history man

Very nice to see the empty streets and appreciate the silence of the morning. Thank you.
He probably edited out the gunshots.
Amazing Chicago, im from Vietnam
I just moved out of the south side to Arizona after living there my whole life...I really miss that cold ass place more than i thought i would
love from NYC
Sempre belo USA. Tudo em suas cidades lindíssimas.
BEAUTIFUL CITY!
Beautiful driving tour downtown Chicago 🥰😊
Amazing city very beautiful view thank you for sharing and have a nice day my friend 😍

New york is much bigger
London makes these cities look dirty and soul less
“NYC is my second favourite and New Orleans is my favourite... Chicago is top two and it ain’t two”
Huh?
@@Elguapo93, New Orleans is my favorite city I've ever visited.
Chicago's DOWNTOWN is top two, and it ain't two. Meaning, Chicago has the best DOWNTOWN I've seen.
You're not wrong about NYC....post-pandemic, it's a lot dirtier. I work in Midtown and see it every day.
I love your Chicago Videos!
Me too!
14:30 the car just disappeared 😱😱😱
Thats right i rewind it 5 times just to see that car disappear. It's a mystery!!
@@stahp66 Matrix fail?
Thank you for posting this I'm even more homesick 😢
love Chicago too!

Of course, summer is the best time to go. Winters are too brutal.

Wow very beautiful city. Love from Switzerland
Thanks
Does Chicago have a bad rap in Switzerland? It’s considered one of the most dangerous US cities which I think it unfair.
Sorry pls don’t come here your country is already ten time million better
@@hermeslein6614 I will come for tourism only. For tourism only Chicago is a great city. But just for a few days not to live in permanently.
@@private9948 wow I want to come to your country do they have free healtcare do you all live rich kind of lifestyle
beautiful skyscrapers so much. i like😍

i don't know why i love this city so much
Missing Chicago so much
Talk about perfect timing; I was just going to search for a Chicago video when your notification popped up!
One of my favorite cities in the US 😍
Same 😂
Nothing better than driving down lake shore 😶🌫️
Nice neat n clean advance city with greenry as well... a sight which i wished to sit in a car and see modern America...thanks a lot..
Talk about perfect timing! I'm currently waiting to see if I got a network engineer job in Chicago!
This is amazing! Thank you for reminding my good times in Chicago back in 2016!
Very beautiful and clean city.
Chicago looks great.
You're back! But u miss the beautiful summer
This vlog is a work of art !
thanks andrew!!
I absolutely love how you do the recap at the beginning showing what the video travels to.
My US favorite city
Thanks for the journey through Chicago: seems a little bit cold-inhuman, however a great metropolis
its like most US cities.
European cities are warmer. London + Paris etc
@@bassicuk1986 Yes, they have historical centers or downtowns which are more human
Absolute convenience driving in the U.S. unlike Europe.
for driving ok, but.....@@mm6461

Thank you for taking me to your beautiful city
As an Indian, such road infrastructure and impressive architecture is just like a dream to me.
You should know that there is a city underneath too. Lower Wacker Drive… honestly, it’s an engineering marvel.
Amazing view 😍 ❤ regards from Riyadh Saudia Arabia

The best city 🤗🇺🇸
If you got a shitty Mayor in Lori Lightfoot aka Beetlejuice
You mean New York City lol
For me the best city is Los Angeles
@@tratallere NYC and Chicago the real definitions of American cities. Too bad their policymakers are trash. So Miami and Austin it is!
@Lil Nnaji Rocker what about Los Angeles, Los Angeles is one of the best cities of the united states too
I miss you so much,and you're creative keep going✨✨✨✨✨..

its a big mix. the public transit is pretty great but yeah its all walkable and livable
Amazing! You haven’t done this for a year!
