“Story of Windy City” by Hayden Su

The city of Chicago has been known by many nicknames, but it is most widely recognized as the “Windy City”.

The term “Windy City” came into common usage when it was popularized by New York City editor, Charles Dana, in The Sun during the bidding for the 1893 Columbian Exposition.

This is the “Story of Windy City” work by photographer Hayden Su starring by models Jefferson West, Derek Hedrick and Jalen Mickey styled by Leslie Castromayor and Bekah Lazear, MUA by Alisa Radoi.
