    America's News English Late, sure, but Chicago thinks big - Millennium Park opens, finally, with weekend bash starting today Chicago Sun-Times (IL) - Friday, July 16, 2004 Author: KEVIN NANCE Let no one say that Chicago does anything halfway. For evidence to the contrary, look no further than Millennium Park, the $475 million downtown showcase boasting work by some of the world's most prestigious artists and architects, finally opening with a three-day, $700,000 bash starting today. Sure, it's four years late and $325 million more expensive than originally planned, but the 24.5-acre park -- with its exuberant centerpiece, architect Frank Gehry's Pritzker Pavilion -- is a brash and brawny testament to Chicago's vision of itself as a world-class city. Lois Weisberg, Chicago's commissioner of cultural affairs, compares the Millennium Park project to the city's effort in 1893, when it hosted the World's Columbian Exposition, which drew an astonishing 27 million visitors. "That attitude of those people of a century ago is exactly the same as Mayor Daley and the people who created Millennium Park," Weisberg says. "They know that in Chicago, you do things big." And just as in 1893, tourists are expected to flock to see the City of Big Shoulders thinking big. "There's no question about it," says park chairman John Bryan. "Remember, 600,000 people went to Bilbao, Spain, to see Gehry's Guggenheim Museum in its first year, and now we've got a new Gehry masterpiece. We've got pieces by world-class artists Anish Kapoor and Jaume Plensa.

  • S Must-See Urban Oasis
    Chicago’s Must-See Urban Oasis Source: www.TurfMagazine.com Dragonflies dance above gently waving grasses; bees and butterflies flit in and out of bright blossoms; songbirds add their lilting melodies to the soothing sounds of slowly flowing water. This tranquil setting lies within the 5-acre Lurie Garden nestled within Chicago’s 24.5-acre Millennium Park. The park is steps from the heart of the city, extending along Michigan Avenue. It’s also one of the world’s largest green roofs, topping seven levels of underground parking garages and an active commuter train system. The plantings within the Lurie Garden were inspired by the native prairie of Illinois and designed by Piet Oudolf, a plantsman based in the Netherlands and known worldwide for his imaginative garden designs. A wooden boardwalk suspended over shallow water divides the garden into a “dark plate” of trees, shrubs and shade-loving plants and a “light plate” of sun-loving plants in an ever-evolving prairie. A hedge of mixed plants and 14-foot-tall metal structure enclose the north and west sides of the garden. The hedge muffles urban noise and protects the garden from the crowds of pedestrians gathering for concerts and special events in other areas of the park. Jennifer Davit uses her smartphone to snap photos of areas that need attention to more efficiently convey information to both staff and volunteers. PHOTO BY STEVE TRUSTY. Piet’s focus for the Lurie Garden is on durability even more than sustainability. Plants selected must be dependable, disease-resistant, and easy to maintain.

Front of Shoulder Hedge The Millennium Park website describes the Lurie Garden as “Designed by Gustafson Guthrie Nichols Ltd., Piet Oudolf and Robert Israel, this 2.5-acre garden pays homage to the City's motto, ‘Urbs in Horto’ (City in a Garden), which refers to Chicago's transformation from its flat and marshy origins to a bold and powerful city. Highlights of the garden include the dramatically lit, 15-foot-high ‘shoulder’ hedge. This physical representation of Sandburg's famous description of the ‘City of Big Shoulders’ encloses the garden on two sides and protects the delicate perennial garden from the throngs of concertgoers to and Gehry Band Shell rising above Eryngium yuccifolium from the band shell. This structure exemplifies the unusual strength and structure of this Chicago garden, where plants rise taller than people.” Alexia Paul, RLA, of Terry Guen Design Associates, led the first session.

  • United States District Court Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division
    Case: 1:19-cv-06213 Document #: 54 Filed: 02/20/20 Page 1 of 32 PageID #:1067 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS EASTERN DIVISION MATT SWART, et al., Plaintiffs, Case No. 19-cv-6213 v. Judge John Robert Blakey CITY OF CHICAGO, Defendant. MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER This case centers around Millennium Park, a beloved public park and major tourist attraction for the City of Chicago. The City views the Park as a unique space— one that showcases world-class art, music, architecture, and landscape design. Accordingly, the City enacted restrictions it claims protects the Park’s aesthetic integrity. Despite these good intentions, however, the City’s restrictions prohibit reasonable forms of expression in large areas of the Park. As a result, Plaintiffs Matt Swart, Jeremy Chong, Gabriel Emerson, and Caeden Hood sued the City, claiming the City’s restrictions violate their First Amendment rights to evangelize and disseminate religious literature. Intervenors Elizabeth Norden, Tyler Brumfield, Doris Davenport, and William Morgan also challenge the restrictions, claiming that the restrictions unconstitutionally limit their right to circulate petitions in the Park. 1 Case: 1:19-cv-06213 Document #: 54 Filed: 02/20/20 Page 2 of 32 PageID #:1068 Both groups move for a preliminary injunction against the City, asking this Court to enjoin the City from enforcing those restrictions. [7] [35]. For the reasons stated below, this Court grants their motions. I. Background A. Procedural History On September 18, 2019, Plaintiffs—four Wheaton College students—filed their complaint against the City. [1]. Plaintiffs, members of an outreach ministry known as the Chicago Evangelism Team, claim that the City’s newly enacted rules governing the Park violate their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech (Count I) and free exercise of religion (Count II), as well as the Illinois Religious Freedom Restoration Act (Count III).

At the Crown Fountain, a group of boisterous teenage boys pick up one of their own by all four limbs and carry him into the shallow water. Backlit by one of the fountain’s massive MILLEN NIUM Iglowing towers, the boy surfs on his backside, letting out a gleeful cry, as the group races to the opposite side. Nearby, couples lounge in the grass at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, while families and individuals cluster on a wooden boardwalk, some with their bare feet in a creek in the Lurie Garden. Even as a IMPACT storm approaches, a security guard has a hard time convincing people to leave as they take selfies in front of the Bean. It’s hard to remember what life was like before Millennium Park. Since its opening on July 16, 2004, it has become one of the city’s iconic destinations and its second-most-visited tourist spot after Navy Pier. (It’s also easy to forget that Millennium Park is a rooftop garden built over an underground parking garage.) Despite its 24.5 acres, this urban oasis has an undeni- able intimacy, each of its manageable areas like a cozy room within an expansive house. A decade into the life of this com- munal space of greenery and public art, we take a look at 10 moments that shaped the park’s development—and sealed its place in the hearts of Chicagoans and visitors alike.
