Lakefront City. I'm not very creative, lol. But yea, that would be a good idea. Considering Chicago has great gangster history like Al Capone.

Honestly they should not sounding negative or idolizing it ,but Chicago is truly a gangsta city. Corrupt politics , the mob, the Cartel and street gangs. Then again it's kind of good Chicago doesn't have that image in people mind's.

Lake Metropolis or Caponeland

It would have to be based on the 20s and 30s easy.

That would be the most likely timeframe, but there are a few others that could be a lot more interesting.

The late 1800's would be great - especially the Levee before the fire. That was a crazy time where Chicago had a lot in common with the lawless towns out West - just on a much larger more organized scale. The late 60's would be good as well. The riots, the convention, Fred Hampton, etc.

If Miami is Vice City; Chicago is Gangster City.
