Want a break from the conference? You can stroll down Michigan Avenue past the historic Tribune Tower and over the Chicago River to Millennium Park. This dynamic downtown park features the Jay Pritzker Pavilion designed by Frank Gehry; the interactive Crown Fountain by Jaume Plensa; and Anish Kapoor’s Cloud Gate sculpture. Step into the Lurie Garden and you won’t know you are still downtown.
From the Park you can take the new pedestrian bridge across Monroe Street to the recently opened Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago. Both were designed by Renzo Piano.Meeting29Oct2008
