    The second most populous city in Illinois after Chicago, Aurora adopted the nickname "City of Lights" in 1908 after becoming one of the first US cities to implement an all electric street lighting system in 1881. Aurora is also home to an impressive number of architectural marvels, with works from Frank Lloyd Wright, Bruce Goff, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
