Kid's Guide!
Chicago, a city of celebrated, well-known architecture, is also home to remarkable and pioneering works of landscape architecture, from the Prairie style epitomized by Alfred Caldwell鈥檚 Lily Pool and Jens Jensen鈥檚 Columbus Park to significant 20th century landscapes that include the roof garden atop the Modernist Lake Point Tower and Dan Kiley鈥檚 geometric design for the Art Institute of Chicago鈥檚 South Garden.
