There's no city there. That point is in Kansas, somewhat west of Kansas City, about midway between the towns of Linwood and DeSoto, about 3 miles north of State Route 10, just south of Golden Rd., between the railroad and the north bank of the Kansas River.
There is no recorded history of a hurricane hitting Chicago. Chicago is too far from the ocean. Note that remnants of hurricanes have passed over Chicago, but these remnants are no longer hurricanes.

This is true. The Union Pacific Railroad was the first trans-continental railroad. It ran from Chicago and Promontory Point, Utah.
The Union Pacific Railroad was one of the companies that built the first transcontinental railroad in the United States, which connected Council Bluffs, Iowa, and Omaha, Nebraska, with Sacramento, California. Promontory Point, Utah, was the site where the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads met and ceremonially completed the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869.

Promontory Point, located in Utah, was the site where the first transcontinental railroad in the United States was completed on May 10, 1869. This historic event was marked by the driving of the "Golden Spike," which symbolized the joining of the Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroads. The completion of the railroad drastically improved transportation and communication across the country, facilitating westward expansion and economic growth. Today, Promontory Point is commemorated as a significant landmark in American history.
The western starting point of the transcontinental railroad was located in Sacramento, California. The Central Pacific Railroad, which was responsible for the western portion of the railroad, began construction in 1863 and aimed to connect with the Union Pacific Railroad, which was building from the east. The completion of the railroad in 1869 at Promontory Summit, Utah, marked a significant milestone in American transportation and commerce.
The golden spike that was used to mark the completion of the transcontinental railroad in the celebration at Promontory, Utah is in the Stanford Museum in Stanford, California. There is a second golden spike that was not used in the celebration at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, California.

Up until the 1970s, the city of Chicago had what was called "the stockyards". These were slaughter houses, located on the south side of town, where cattle were brought in by railroad, slaughtered, and send out by railroad to be sold as beef products. With this history, it's understandable why the city's basketball team would choose to name their team players after the male cattle, bulls.
Chicago is located in the state of Illinois. Denver is located in the state of Colorado. The distance between these two cities is 895 miles.
