The Chicago Athletic Association in 1913
Cindy’s Rooftop in the historic Chicago Athletic Association hotel will host a special dinner on October 23, 2017. Four chefs have collaborated on the menu, which is based on William Waldorf Astor’s World’s Fair dinner held on October 9, 1889, at Delmonico’s in New York, where business leaders met to plan their city’s bid for the World’s Fair.
The 1893 World’s Fair (of course) was held in Chicago, and the Chicago Athletic Association building, designed by World’s Fair architect Henry Ives Cobb, opened in 1893.
Tickets for this World’s Fair dinner are available for $150 from David Mor, Special Events Manager, at dmor@chicagoathletichotel.com.
