On a 2.5-hour walking tour, explore Chicago's Kenwood district. Once one of the city's most elite neighborhoods, Kenwood still contains an abundance of homes of astounding proportions and historic significance.

Kenwood is a history buff's dream, and its architecturally diverse mansions have housed some of America's most successful businessmen including the printer William Rand, and the meatpacking magnate Gustavius Swift.

Kenwood has also been home to cultural icons like Muhammad Ali and Muddy Waters, but the area is perhaps most well known today for being the Chicago residence of US President Barack Obama.
