The skyline dominates the view along
Lakeshore Boulevard and Michigan Avenue. In the foreground, is one of
the finest aquariums in the world, the John G. Shedd Aquarium. To the
right of the skyline, reaching out into Lake Michigan, is the impressive
3000 foot-long Navy Pier. The large globe-like structure on the hill is
the Adler Planetarium.
Millennium Park, an
ambitious and sometimes controversial addition to Chicago's downtown
lakefront has opened. The centerpiece of the 24-and-a-half-acre park is
the Pritzker Pavilion, a 120-foot-high outdoor music stage framed with a
signature Gehry sculpture. The pavilion will be the new home of the
Grant Park Music Festival, a 70-year-old summer series of classical
concerts. A pedestrian bridge, also designed by Mr. Gehry and spanning
Columbus Drive, provides access to the pavilion and links Millennium
Park to the rest of Chicago's lakefront park system.
