One of the best views of downtown. Can also shelter here if it starts raining.
One of the nicest places to sit down and relax.
Chicago's little heaven
Located on the north side of the Art Institute, this public space is a gem. Canopied by beautiful trees and amidst some incredible sculptures, this garden is the perfect getaway from the chaotic city.
Beautiful setting amidst the city. The tethered trees create a canopy that makes you feel sheltered from elements. The Garden will transport you
Honestly not that impressive, especially when compared to the rest of the public art just a few steps away.
Great to Relax. So Very Peaceful . Yet, So Close to Everything.
The statue is the work of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and the statue's base was designed by architect Stanford White.
