Millennium Park is a prominent civic center of the City of Chicago in Illinois and an important landmark of the city’s lake front.
A redeveloped section of Grant Park, the 24.5 acre (101,000 m²) landmark is bounded by Michigan Avenue and its Chicago Landmark Historic Michigan Boulevard District, East Randolph Street, Columbus Drive and East Monroe Drive. It was Mayor of Chicago Richard M. Daley’s ambitious idea to realize that which was originally designed as part of Daniel Burnham’s Plan of Chicago, a plan for the future of Chicago created in 1909. It is historically the site of the Chicago Cubs’ (then known as the White Stockings) first home field in 1871, Union Base-Ball Grounds. Nice town, lot of tourist spots.
