All About Chicago, IL

The first non-indigenous permanent settler in the Chicago area was Jean Baptiste Point du Sable, a trader of African descent. He arrived in the mid-1700s and established a settlement in the 1780s. He is commonly known as the Founder of Chicago. 

The Town of Chicago had only 200 residents when it was organized in 1833. It grew quickly, and four years later it was incorporated as the City of Chicago. Through the Chicago Portage, the city became a major transportation hub between the eastern and western US, and it became the fastest-growing city in the world for several decades. The flourishing economy brought in foreign immigrants and rural farmers alike.

The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 destroyed about four square miles of the city. It was easier for the fire to spread than in other cities because of the wooden streets. The area was rebuilt with steel and stone, including the world’s first skyscraper in 1885. The rebuilding period saw incredible growth, and Chicago annexed several neighboring townships.

During Prohibition, Chicago was a major scene in the Gangster Era, with famous gangsters like Al Capone operating in the city. While the Great Depression brought great suffering to the city, WWII brought new growth, with Chicago producing more steel for the war on its own than the entire United Kingdom.
