Chicago Highlights
Chicago's crown jewel is Millennium Park, built above Illinois Central Railroad tracks between the lakefront and Michigan Avenue north of Grant Park, opened in 2004. Highlights include Cloud Gate, the polished metal sculpture also known as "The Bean". The Jay Pritzker Pavillion, a band shell designed by Frank Gehrey. Crown Fountain, two 50 foot towers that project faces of 1000 Chicago residents, one at a time, on embedded LED video screens. Lurie Garden, located south of Pritzker Pavillion. Wrigley Square with the Millennium Monument. And Nichols Bridgeway leading to the Modern Wing of the Art Institute.
While Millenium Park is the subject of many of the images in this gallery, other images include details from the Chicago Cultural Center, famous landmarks, and classic skylines. The Cultural Center, the old Chicago Public Library, showcases the magnificent Tiffany Dome, as well as jewel-like Tiffany mosaics.
