PROJECT OVERVIEW A. General Scope of Services The Chicago Park District (“CPD”) seeks to continue construction of a new, world-class, multi- functional park at Maggie Daley Park (formerly known as North Grant Park) and invites members of the North Grant Park Construction Pre-Qualified Pool to submit proposals in response to this RFP for Phase 2 of the project. Daley Bicentennial Plaza is the cap to the 3,700 car underground Millennium Lakeside Garage (formerly known as the East Monroe Garage) completed in 1979 which added approximately 20 acres to Grant Park. The Millennium Lakeside Parking Garage is undergoing extensive renovation which required the removal of the Plaza in its entirety for repairs to the roof membrane. The renovation of the Millennium Lakeside parking structure provided CPD a chance to reconsider the design and function of the area directly over the garage. Phase 1 of the construction of Maggie Daley Park, currently in progress, includes the removal of existing site elements at Daley Bicentennial Plaza and Peanut Park, protection of existing features to remain, removal and stockpile of the existing on-site soils, modifications to the existing parking garage HVAC system including vents and plenums, and cast-in-place concrete foundations for limited new structural components tied to the garage structure. Refer to the Maggie Daley Park Project – Phase 1 Conformed Set dated January 8, 2013, and included as a part of this package for reference only for additional information. The repairs to the Millennium Lakeside Garage (“Garage”) lid slab and pedestrian tunnels are also under construction at this time. The Garage repairs (by others) include but are not be limited to: lid slab concrete repairs including partial and full depth concrete repairs, overhead slab repairs at the underside, vertical surface concrete repairs at the pedestrian tunnels, stairs, airshaft walls and other concrete elements, drainage improvements to the garage slab, including geofoam infill; and thermal and moisture protection including new hot applied fabric reinforced waterproofing system. Note that the waterproofing scope of work includes the waterproofing of the concrete structures installed as a part of Phase 1 of the Maggie Daley Park Project as well as the existing Daley Bicentennial field house structure. Refer to “Lakeside (East Monroe) Garage Lid and Access Tunnels Repair and Waterproofing” Construction Set dated October 22, 2012, and included as part of this package for reference only for additional information. The Awardee will be required to sequence work in close coordination with the Phase 1 renovation and Garage repairs, both currently underway and concurrent with this Scope of Work. Areas of work and access to the site will overlap between contracts. Additionally, the Awardee for each phase shall join its work with that of others and perform all work in proper sequence to that of others. Finally, the Awardee for each phase shall conduct its work so as not to interfere with or hinder the progress of the completion of the work being performed by other contractors and shall comply with Section XV of the General Conditions. Services the Awardee will perform include but are not limited to the following: 1. Mobilization and demobilization, establishment and maintenance of project baseline and field engineering. Construction administration responsibilities including coordination of construction meetings, preparation and distribution of meeting minutes, preparation and updating of submittals, RFI logs and other project logs and preparation of graphics regarding site logistics and construction sequencing. 2. Coordination with the Park District’s Phase 1 General Contractor and Chicago Loop Parking’s project team, which includes their Construction Manager, Contractor, Architect and Operator, will be required at certain times concurrent to the duration of this project. P-12017-02 3 Maggie Daley Park Renovation – Phase 2 3. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic control including the installation, maintenance, removals and relocation of existing and new construction fencing, access gates, and other measures required for site security and maintenance of traffic during construction. 4.

  • Social Media and Popular Places: the Case of Chicago Kheir Al-Kodmany†
    International Journal of High-Rise Buildings International Journal of June 2019, Vol 8, No 2, 125-136 High-Rise Buildings https://doi.org/10.21022/IJHRB.2019.8.2.125 www.ctbuh-korea.org/ijhrb/index.php Social Media and Popular Places: The Case of Chicago Kheir Al-Kodmany† Department of Urban Planning and Policy, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA Abstract This paper offers new ways to learn about popular places in the city. Using locational data from Social Media platforms platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, along with participatory field visits and combining insights from architecture and urban design literature, this study reveals popular socio-spatial clusters in the City of Chicago. Locational data of photographs were visualized by using Geographic Information Systems and helped in producing heat maps that showed the spatial distribution of posted photographs. Geo-intensity of photographs illustrated areas that are most popularly visited in the city. The study’s results indicate that the city’s skyscrapers along open spaces are major elements of image formation. Findings also elucidate that Social Media plays an important role in promoting places; and thereby, sustaining a greater interest and stream of visitors. Consequently, planners should tap into public’s digital engagement in city places to improve tourism and economy. Keywords: Social media, Iconic socio-spatial clusters, Popular places, Skyscrapers 1. Introduction 1.1. Sustainability: A Theoretical Framework The concept of sustainability continues to be of para- mount importance to our cities (Godschalk & Rouse, 2015). Planners, architects, economists, environmentalists, and politicians continue to use the term in their conver- sations and writings.

  • Daniel H. Burnham and Chicago's Parks
    Daniel H. Burnham and Chicago’s Parks by Julia S. Bachrach, Chicago Park District Historian In 1909, Daniel H. Burnham (1846 – 1912) and Edward Bennett published the Plan of Chicago, a seminal work that had a major impact, not only on the city of Chicago’s future development, but also to the burgeoning field of urban planning. Today, govern- ment agencies, institutions, universities, non-profit organizations and private firms throughout the region are coming together 100 years later under the auspices of the Burnham Plan Centennial to educate and inspire people throughout the region. Chicago will look to build upon the successes of the Plan and act boldly to shape the future of Chicago and the surrounding areas. Begin- ning in the late 1870s, Burnham began making important contri- butions to Chicago’s parks, and much of his park work served as the genesis of the Plan of Chicago. The following essay provides Daniel Hudson Burnham from a painting a detailed overview of this fascinating topic. by Zorn , 1899, (CM). Early Years Born in Henderson, New York in 1846, Daniel Hudson Burnham moved to Chi- cago with his parents and six siblings in the 1850s. His father, Edwin Burnham, found success in the wholesale drug busi- ness and was appointed presidet of the Chicago Mercantile Association in 1865. After Burnham attended public schools in Chicago, his parents sent him to a college preparatory school in New England. He failed to be accepted by either Harvard or Yale universities, however; and returned Plan for Lake Shore from Chicago Ave. on the north to Jackson Park on the South , 1909, (POC).

Grant Park’s most notable features are Millennium Park, Buckingham Fountain, and four world-class museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Field Museum of Natural History, the Adler Planetarium, and the John G.

Back to Table of Contents Glorious Grant Park This tour will begin in the northwestern corner of Grant Park known as Millennium Park, one of the most popular “parks within a park” to be found in any U.S. city. Just completed a few years ago, it is already a big hit with tourists and locals alike. The original Chicago development plan was to leave the area east of Michigan Avenue vacant. New land purchasers of Michigan Avenue lots in 1839 were promised that the land between them and Lake Michigan would remain unoccupied and declared “Public ground. Forever to remain vacant of buildings.” When the land was deeded in the mid-19th century it was originally named Lake Park, only to be renamed Grant Park in 1901 after the famous Civil War general, president, and Illinois resident.
