Children's Museum Has Yet to Make their Case
Posted September 13th, 2007 at 04:33 PM by Eric Frost
The architectural critic of the Chicago Tribune wrote an article that was published yesterday on why the Children's Museum should not be located in Daley Bicentenniel Plaza.
Regarding the Plaza itself the critic writes: "Though Daley Bicentennial is not without merit -- its rigidly symmetrical layout does frame views of Buckingham Fountain, and residents of nearby high-rises prize its quiet ambience as an antidote to Millennium Park's throngs -- its design is as outdated and outmoded as one of the John Travolta leisure suits that were in fashion when Chicago dedicated the 19.5-acre park in 1979."
