Jean-Baptiste Pointe DuSable Lake Shore Drive
Only in Chicago does the phrase "cruising on LSD" not raise concern. The abbreviation "LSD" stands for Lake Shore Drive, a stretch of road that hugs up against the city's eastern most border, separating our sprawling metropolis from Lake Michigan. Running from Edgewater to Jackson Park, the expressway offers breathtaking views of the skyline, notable institutions and—of course—aqua-hued waters.
