What is 1871?

The story of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 isn't really about the fire. It's about what happened next: A remarkable moment when the most brilliant engineers, architects and inventors came together to build a new city. Their innovations - born of passion and practical ingenuity - shaped not just Chicago, but the modern world. What started 140 years ago continues to this day.

Come to a place where you can share ideas, make mistakes, work hard, build your business and, with a little luck, change the world.
