The Summit of Uptown Presents Daniel Burnham
Learn about Chicago through the life of Daniel Burnham at The Summit of Uptown



“Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood.”– Daniel Burnham

Portraying Daniel Burnham, Terry Lynch will lead you through the city he loved so much at The Summit of Uptown, 10 N. Summit (at Touhy) in Park Ridge, Thursday, Sept. 22, at 1:30 p.m. Guests are invited to the free event and may make reservations by calling 847-825-1161, ext 129. Light refreshments will be served.



Lynch’s live re-enactment of Burnham’s life will introduce you to the people and events that shaped the “Windy City,” from the Fort Dearborn Massacre to the Columbian Exposition of 1893. From the Union Stockyards to the city’s fabulous architecture, come and find out how Chicago was transformed from the “Wild Onion” to the “City of the Big Shoulders” through the eyes of Daniel Burnham.



Guests are encouraged to stay for tours of the newly renovated retirement community. Parking is available in the City’s Central Parking Lot and the Uptown lot across the street. For a list of other entertaining events at Summit, visit www.summitofuptown.com.
