This is separate post about Millenium Park. We think it is fitting to have a separate post because of the grand idea to cover a parking lot and train station with an outdoor park! The first pic shows the parking lot before the building of the roof top park. The story is that Mayor Daley was at the dentist, whose office was adjacent to the parking lot, and looked out over the parking lot and said that something had to be done with that awful site. So, more than half of the park was financed by private donations. The next 2 pic shows the “bean”, which is modeled after a drop of liquid mercury. Finally, a pic of the water towers with images of faces pouring out water.
