Urban Lakefront Cable Cars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Chicago Skyline' Cable Car System Would Enhance Tourism

— May 5, 2016 — World
Put forth as a way to help invigorate the Chicago tourism industry, the 'Chicago Skyline' cable car system would see a series of cable cars introduced onto the lakefront of the city. Designed by the same company responsible for the London Eye, Marks Barfield Architects, the 'Chicago Skyline' would help enhance the experience for residents and tourists of the city.

The custom 'Chicago Skyline' cable car system would be designed to carry passengers along the edge of the lakefront and provide a truly exceptional experience. Picturesque views of the lake and city could be admired from the gondolas and operate in the evening hours to help offer the best view and experience possible.

Although the vision of the 'Chicago Skyline' is not yet approved for implementation, it would likely help to draw many more tourists to the American metropolis.
Trend Themes
1. Lakefront Cable Cars - With the growing tourism industry, cable car systems along the lakefronts could provide an exceptional experience for visitors.
2. Evening Cable Car Rides - Operating cable car rides in the evening would attract more visitors and also provide an unparalleled view of the city and its skyline.
3. City-wide Cable Cars - Expanding the cable car systems to cover the entire city would provide a unique means of travel for locals and tourists alike.
Industry Implications
1. Tourism - Utilizing cable cars to provide unique experiences for tourists could potentially boost the tourism industry in the city.
2. Transportation - The cable car system could introduce a new and innovative transportation option for the city's residents and visitors.
3. Architecture and Construction - Designing and constructing the cable car system would require specialized expertise and present an opportunity for companies in these industries.
