Now, as ABC7 reports, the city of Chicago is celebrating this living legacy by releasing a series of limited-edition cans filled with Lake Michigan’s finest “Chicagwa.” Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot explained at a press conference that the initiative aims to “highlight how we make use of the abundant resources of Lake Michigan and draw more attention to the rich story of our city’s beloved crown jewel, which is our lake.” Kate Lynn Lewis drew from its 1920s Art Deco architecture to develop a can that “reflect[s] what a luxury I believe it is for us to have fresh drinking water available right here in Lake Michigan,” per the Chicagwa website.
