What are Chicago's social landmarks?

June 20, 2012|RedEye

This isn't going to help Cubs fans shed the stereotype of disinterested followers who only come to Wrigley Field for the scene or the party or the opposite sex.

Facebook has compiled the most social landmarks around the world, and Wrigley Field ranks first in Chicago. The social media giant used check-ins on Facebook and apps that use Facebook's API to arrive at their list.

Here is the Top 5 in Chicago.

1. Wrigley Field

2. United Center

3. Navy Pier

4. Soldier Field

5. Millennium Park

(Transportation hubs--airports, train stations, bus stations, etc.--were excluded in the study. Data was measured since the launch of Facebook check-ins, which started August 2010.)
