💡 Answer to Trivia Question:

Chicago's Art Institute served as the iconic landmark at Route 66's original starting point. When the historic highway was established in 1926, it began at the intersection of Jackson Boulevard and Michigan Avenue, directly in front of this renowned cultural institution. Today, visitors can find the "Begin Route 66" sign on Adams Street near Michigan Avenue, still adjacent to the Art Institute, marking the beginning of the famous 2,400-mile journey to California.
