Answer:

Chicago en los siglos XX y XXI

Michigan Boulevard. Principios de siglo XX

La aprobación de la Decimoctava Enmienda a la Constitución de los Estados Unidos ilegalizó la producción y venta de bebidas alcohólicas. Dio lugar al período de la ley seca, entre 1919 y 1933, durante el cual prosperaron los gángsters en la ciudad. Destacan Al Capone, Dion O'Banion, Bugs Moran y Tony Accardo.9​ En 1929, Chicago fue el escenario de la matanza de San Valentín, cuando Al Capone envió a sus hombres a asesinar a miembros de la banda rival de Bugs Moran.10​

Con el fin de celebrar el centenario de la ciudad, en 1933 y 1934 se organizó una Feria mundial conocida como “Un Siglo de Progreso”, culminando unos esfuerzos iniciados en enero de 1928. La exposición se ideó como un testimonio de los logros científicos e industriales del siglo transcurrido desde la fundación de la ciudad. El recinto de la feria, de 112 hectáreas, se ubicó a la orilla del lago Míchigan, al sur de Navy Pier (Muelle de la Armada), y contaba con dos lagunas artificiales.

La feria se inauguró el 27 de mayo de 1933, con el encendido de las luces mediante los rayos de la estrella Arturo. Los rayos se captaron con células fotoeléctricas en distintos observatorios astronómicos y luego se transformaron en energía eléctrica que se transmitió a Chicago. La feria fue un éxito sin precedentes y se prolongó hasta 1934, tiempo durante el que recibió más de 48 millones de visitantes.

Como muchas otras ciudades de los Estados Unidos, Chicago está confrontada a la quiebra de su sistema de jubilaciones.11​

El área de Chicago fue una de las ciudades más duramente afectadas por la Ola de frío en América del Norte, haciendo bajar las temperaturas hasta -23°F (-30°C) con sensación térmica que llegó hasta los -52°F (-46°C
