Welcome to The Loop, Chicago's largest business and government district. This area of the city was completely destroyed during the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, but was immediately rebuilt in time for the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. Its name originated to pay homage to the old-time cable cars that turned around on a pulley in the center of the district. When the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) rapid transit system emerged during the turn of the 20th century, it also 'looped' around the downtown area, so the name remained. Reconstruction of the area continued and paved the way for the emergence of Chicago's breathtaking skyline, which boasts some of the oldest and most architecturally-significant skyscrapers in the world. The Loop is also home to th rt Institute of Chicago,Civic Opera House,Grant Park,Millennium Park, the financial district an illis Tower(formerly known as Sears Tower), as well as Chicago's historic theater district, which is also calle roadway in Chicago.
