Garfield Park Conservatory
In Chicago, nature is a precious luxury and much of the best of it is heated and watered here, in this hundred-degree-plus refuge that feels like a little vacation. Most people can be fun while drinking, dancing or Cosmic Bowling. If you can keep up the charm while admiring the Double Coconut Palm and grabbing a bench to do the crossword, you’re the sort of person we’d like to know for a while.
