Chicago Map Art
Chicago's grid marches straight across the lakefront, with the Chicago River dividing the city into three branches that frame downtown. Lake Michigan forms a hard eastern edge, while the street numbering system radiates outward from the State and Madison intersection, creating numbered avenues running north-south and named streets running east-west across the entire metropolitan area.
