You really need to visit downtown, that's where most of the interesting things are. Just seeing the skyline alone is worth travelling downtown. There are also tons of great museums (the Art Institute is right up there with Louvre, National Gallery in London, Metropolitan imo), plus Shed Aquarium, Field Museum, Millennium Park, Navy Pier, Adler Planetarium. Also lot's of great restaurants and live music if you're into that.

I am happy to say after visiting Hartford and Salt Lake this year, I have lived in or spent at least 5 days in every major top 50 metro in America.

I have also seen a lot of smaller metros, but plan to do a college town tour next year

I often wonder if these "name all cities/countries/states you have been to" threads are an internet form of masturbation. Relevant only to the self-poster. I guess I am cynical, but does anyone really care/read what the other posters document as the cities they've driven through?
My favorite cities for vacation are actually quite small. Larger cities are not necessarily more memorable.

When I travel, I usually like traveling internationally because it's foreign cultures and stuff that really interests me, but nonetheless traveling is traveling and I'll take it as long as I get to do so. But compared to most other people, I've been nowhere in the U.S.!

Concord/Manchester/Nashua, NH (If you count Concord as a city. It's considered one but hardly a city, really)
New York City, NY
Boston, MA
Buffalo, NY
Washington D.C.
Newark, NJ
Jersey City, NJ
Parsippany, NJ
Williamsburg, VA
Richmond, VA
Savannah, GA
L.A., CA
