Chicago, the third most populous city in the USA, is known by a number
of names, among which include "the Windy City", "Second City" and "City
of Big Shoulders". While it may possess the image of a bustling, busy
urban center, it is possible to get away from the rat race yet still
remain in the city. Presently, Chicago possesses over 7,300 acres of
parkland which encloses 552 parks, 16 lagoons and Chicago's iconic
Buckingham Fountain, one of the world's largest fountains.
