Daniel Burnham Scavenger Hunt

Daniel Burnham Scavenger Hunt

Join us for a city-wide scavenger hunt, celebrating the life and work of Daniel Burnham.  This day-long scavenger hunt will have a total of three separate hunts. Do one, two, or all three to compete. The three hunts will take place in the Loop, the South Loop and Hyde Park. Cars aren't necessary, though you may want to use bicycles or the CTA. You decide the order of your hunts. The overall winner must complete all three hunts.

Like no other person in Chicago’s history, Daniel Burnham made a lasting impression on the vitality of life in this city by the lake. Whether you’re driving on Wacker, swimming in Lake Michigan, traversing the city on the El, or napping in one of the parks, you experience Burnham’s vision - a vision he laid out in the Plan of Chicago 100 years ago!
