We will be staying at the Knickkerbocker July 3 and were wondering where would be a good place near by to watch the fireworks. Hubbie said something about Navy Pier?
We have friends who live down there and they said watch them from your hotel room tv I dont know if they%26#39;re jokeing or not. We used to live in Las Vegas and that was what we would tell people who would come by us to see July fireworks but we were totaly serious.

The local tv stations do broadcast the fireworks, so that really is an option. If you want to see them in person, Navy Pier and Grant Park are both going to be really, really crowded. I%26#39;d maybe go further south along the lakefront to the museum campus to get away from the people. The fireworks along with the Taste of Chicago make Grant Park a more crowded option than Navy Pier, but Navy Pier will be packed as well.

I agree with the last post, try to head south of Grant Park along the lake. We watched a few years ago from near the Planetarium, and it was a good view, and a little less crowded then by Grant Park. It will be insanely crowded around there and Navy Pier.
Just be prepared to be sitting in tons of traffic! It is absolutely ridiculous. The best place is near the yacht club or on a boat like we did last year. Doesnt get much better than that! One year it took us an hour and a half just to get to the West Loop.
