“This spirit—the spirit of Chicago—is our greatest asset “This spirit—the spirit of Chicago—is our greatest asset. It is not merely civic pride: it is rather the constant, steady determination to bring about the very best conditions of city life for all the people, with full knowledge that what we as a people decide to do in the public interest, we can and surely will bring to pass.” - Daniel Burnham
