We've never been to Chicago and only have 1 day, a Monday in March, staying at Holiday Inn & Suites Chicago North Shore -Skokie. Dd loves theater, crafts, fashion

It's not on your list of her interests, but the Shedd aquarium is really fantastic.

Thanks - she would like that, but we have it in NY - where should we go to see the iconic Chicago scenery?

I googled bean - that's some green hair on the artist. Should we just hang out in that neighborhood? Won't have a car https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_Gate

Tbh it has been a mint time since I was there (I think I was 16) but that’s what I remember doing and it was a great time.

That's not really a "neighborhood". There are restaurants and a few things to do (also near the Art Institute), but it's mainly hotels and stores.
