On my recent trip to downtown Chicago... we walked Millenium Park.

Our walk brought me to this vantage of the Millennium Park bandshell... the Pritzker Pavilion.

It's an impressive site... designed by world renowned artist / architect Frank Gehry.

Millennium Park has come to be as much of a symbol of Chicago as the former Picasso statue, and is the showpiece of downtown Chicago.

If you get a chance, come see it.  As you can see, there are speakers suspended over the entire grassy area, where people can sit on blankets to experience any of the concerts.  Because the speakers are spread throughout the park, attendees get a singularly wonderful audio experience, along with the beauty of the pavilion itself.

Located right in the heart of downtown Chicago... with some of the most impressive architecture as a backdrop, the Pritzker Pavilion and Millennium Park are well worth the experience.

Very cool architecture Alan.

Thanks for letting us in on the Pritzker Pavillion at the Millenium Park.

Perhaps a good place for an ActiveRain meet and greet during the concert season next Spring/ Summer?

that would be a great place for an ActiveRain meet & greet, Craig... I'll check with Richie Daley and see if he'll reserve it for 162,000 members.

ain't she purty, Gregory?  Chicago is very proud of Millenium Park, which was built almost entirely with private funds.
