USA Skyline of Chicago
One of the most beautiful skylines in the world is this one from Chicago. Especially the view at or after sunset from Adler Planetarium is just amazing.
Photography Tips
Definitely, you should go with a wide-angle lens, at least 24mm or do a panorama and stitch together. that would probably be better since you would also get a higher resolution for larger printing.
Photography trick: Hold your camera down to the water surface to change the look of the reflections, but please take care of yourself and your equipment! During the day you can also play with the reflection of the clouds.

Travel Information
You can get there by car or by bus. You can also use the train, but then you have to walk for about 10 minutes, which is more than fine in my opinion with this beautiful view.
