Flag of Chicago
Recommended by Steven Weill
Maybe the most iconic US city flag? The three white background areas of the flag represent, from top to bottom, the North, West, and South sides of the city. The top blue bar represents Lake Michigan and the North Branch of the Chicago River. The bottom blue bar represents the South Branch of the river and the "Great Canal", over the Chicago Portage. Love this one.

This might be the only email newsletter I would ever subscribe to. One flag per week. Done.
@weill
I'm afraid I'm far too impatient to just do one a week but if you can manage processing a few a week I've got you covered.
@leslieyeh
I love how much Chicago loves their flag.
