The first thing we did as tourists in Chicago was to take an architectural tour put on by the Chicago Architecture Foundation. This group hosts about 85 different tours, and we chose Historic Downtown (south): Rise of the Skyscraper - a two-hour walking tour. I have put pictures from the tour on my picasa site. Two years ago we took a river boat architectural tour which we really enjoyed, and this one was probably even better, mostly because we got to go inside of the buildings.
Here is a blog by a woman who is taking all tours. Next time we go back to Chicago, we'll probably take another tour. The architecture of the city is inspiring.
