You will enjoy Chicago's fireworks! When we had Convention there in 1993, we were there over the 4th and had the night of the fireworks free. We were at the Hilton & Towers that time, so we just walked across the street to Grant Park to watch them. Beautiful!
In 2001, we were in Atlanta for Convention over the 4th. We were able to see their fireworks outside the hotel window. From the 34th floor, where my room was, it was like they were at eye level. Very cool.
