Chicago was awarded the Games for 1904, but the event was subsequently transferred to St. Louis to coincide with the Louisiana Purchase International Exposition.

Finalists Cities Since 1960?
Is there any way of finding out what the IOC's four final cities were from the Rome Games forward? Such a list would really speak to when certain corners of the world gained the prestige and status to be so considered (i.e. The Far East in '64).

Complete IOC site selection vote history:

People often forget that Tokyo was originally awarded the 1940 games (they even cleared the land for the Olympic Park and built several facilities), before their war in China and the beginnings of WW2 stopped the whole thing. So Japan was on the Olympic radar long before '64, but it took them several years to recover from the war before they could mount another successful bid.

....
96 votes in rounds 1 & 3, but only 95 in round 2.
Based on this, looks like basically all the Chicago votes went directly to Rio.

My ol' hometown (Detroit) made a few good runs at it, didn't they? Back when it was the wealthiest city in the country, before its long, sad, deep decline.
Would have been the first truly international games, since there were plans in all those bids to site some venues in adjacent Windsor Ontario. And even a rather fanciful plan to build the main stadium on a giant platform over the river between the two cities.
