The AMIA 1999 Spring Congress
The Location: Chicago's Drake Hotel

The Drake Hotel, located in the heart of Chicago's Gold Coast, is the site for the AMIA 1999 Spring Congress. Oak Street Beach, a beautiful stretch of sand and sun along Michigan Avenue, is located just outside the hotel front door. The lakefront neighborhood is home to the Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum, the Field Museum, and the John G. Shedd Aquarium. North Michigan Avenue, or the "Magnificent Mile," is also nearby. This world-renowned shopping area boasts flagship stores for some of the world's leading retailers. It is also home to the fabled Water Tower, one of the only buildings to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Two museums are also located on the Magnificent Mile: the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Terra Museum of American Art.

In addition to its cultural and natural attractions, Chicago is home to some of the world's premier restaurants, including the Windy City's famous steakhouses. Don't forget to pack a sweater! Although daytime spring temperatures reach the low 70s, the evenings still get quite chilly, dipping down into the mid-40s.
