dc.descriptionView at the entrance to the Lurie Garden, showing inscription in pavement at the northwest entrance; Millennium Park is a public park located in the Chicago Loop community area of Chicago. It is a prominent civic center of the City of Chicago's Lake Michigan lakefront. A 24.5-acre (9.9 ha) section of northern Grant Park, previously occupied by Illinois Central railyards and parking lots, was built over and redeveloped as Millennium Park. The park is bounded by Michigan Avenue, Randolph Street, Columbus Drive and East Monroe Drive. Planning began in October 1997, construction began in October 1998 and was completed in July 2004. The park features the Cloud Gate, Crown Fountain, Jay Pritzker Pavilion, Lurie Garden and other attractions. The park is connected by bridges to other parts of Grant Park (BP Pedestrian Bridge, Nichols Bridgeway). Frank Gehry designed several parts of the park.
