all the posts about Chicago and Millennium Park
I wound up writing a lot more about Chicago and Millennium Park than I had planned to. here are all the posts:
bold plans, big dreams: general thoughts about Chicago & the September 2009 ASLA conference
the touch gallery: a walk north on Michigan Avenue to the Chicago Art Institute and Dan Kiley’s South Garden
iconic: plunging into Millennium Park and comparing its reputation to its reality
reflections in a bean: the confusing experience of the park, and the rituals surrounding the Bean
in which the architects score a landscape point: the Crown Fountain, the Pritzker Pavilion, the BP Bridge
some past september: I am a big honking fangirl for the Lurie Garden, and I also regret the loss of times past.
