River North Treasures

by Laura Kalinowski, Associate Producer

Quicksilver Associates celebrated its 33rd anniversary June 6th. In our successful, rich history, Quicksilver has always resided at 18 W. Ontario. To celebrate our anniversary and honor the wonderful neighborhood we call home, our team spent the day on a photo scavenger hunt of River North. The staff was broken into three teams and given 15 cryptic clues of well-known River North landmarks. At the end of the day we shared pictures and had a few laughs. No team got all 15 clues correct. How would you fare? We invite you to play along!

Rollover the clues below and see if you are right.

Clues
