More information on Millenium Park
Officially opened in 2004, Millennium Park is a 24.5 acre, historic section of Grant Park that is comprised of impressive post modern architecture and gardens. The Jay Pritzker Pavilion, designed by Frank Gehry, has a state of the art sound system and is home to the Grant Park Music Festival. Located in the southwest corner of the park, the Crown Fountain has two 50 foot glass block towers that project video images of Chicago citizens. Another unique structure is the Cloud Gate, weighing at 110 tons with a mirror-like surface and elliptical shape that was inspired by liquid mercury.
