Description

Originally co-designed with Calvert Vaux, the grounds still carry their defining legacy as the site of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. Along with walking paths tracing the historic footprint, the lakefront grounds balance landmark scenery with everyday recreation across a golf course, harbor, and sports fields.
