'Part of the fun of this show is that we’re calling it The Most Beautiful Places in Chicago, an intentionally provocative title. We’re encouraging people to get into that debate with us,' says Geoffrey Baer:

We spoke to Geoffrey about the show and his love for Chicago, its people, and their cherished places.I have been doing this for so many years, and in every show, I come across a handful of just amazingly beautiful places or things in the Chicago area. I started thinking about these places that you go into and people just can't believe their eyes.
We broadened the definition of beauty so that it's not just physical, visual beauty, but it's also what makes a place or a thing beautiful because of what it means to a person or to a community, and how it's used.
