Millenium Park Launches New Website
CHICAGO, IL, June 8, 2005. Chicago's Millennium Park has launched a new, enhanced web site, ttp://www.millenniumpark.org, to help guide millions of fans and future visitors through the 24.5-acre park. The new online guide will introduce residents and visitors alike to the park through the use of Flash technology, interactive exhibit information, in-depth destination descriptions and featured events. Like the park itself, the website celebrates the city's commitment to beautiful architecture, landscaped and protected parklands and an ongoing celebration of the arts.
The web site's many highlights include: an event calendar detailing the park's numerous free concerts, events and exhibitions; information about private rentals; maps and travel planning tips; and a park history. The web site also provides considerable detail concerning the park's many destinations, including: the Frank Gehry-designed Jay Pritzker Pavilion and BP Bridge; Cloud Gate, one of the world's largest outdoor sculptures by Anish Kapoor; The Crown Fountain, designed by artist Jaume Plensa; and the contemporary Lurie Garden.
"Millennium Park is one of Chicago's most popular new destinations. We are extremely excited to create this online guide where we can provide people the information they need to help plan a visit," said Millennium Park Executive Director Helen Doria. "Our new website reflects the careful attention we have paid to detail and aesthetics, and it truly gives visitors a feel for what they can experience here."
