Did you know? ⚓️ During WWII, the former “Municipal Pier” was transformed into the largest Naval training facility on the planet, officially renamed "Navy Pier" in 1927 to honor that incredible legacy of service. Fast forward to 2026, and we’re still making history with our biggest summer of pier-produced programming EVER. bit.ly/4ddSv31 #ChicagoHistory
