The 7 best museums in Chicago
"Over 480,000 square feet of exhibition space dedicated to all things natural history. Also big at The Field Museum is the newest addition to step into the building; welcome the largest dinosaur ever discovered when the 122-foot-long tyrannosaur makes its way here in summer 2018. The museum’s most famous resident, Sue the “largest and most complete specimen of Tyrannosaurus rex,” has been a fixture in the grand central hall but you’ll find Sue in a new suite upstairs starting in 2019."
