| Title | Cloud Gate, transportation study, Buckingham Fountain, ca. August 21, 2002 |
| Description | Looking west at the concrete pavement near Buckingham Fountain in Chicago. Buildings visible in the background include the Harrison Hotel Electric Garage, the Congress Hotel, the Auditorium Building, the 311 South Wacker Building, CNA Plaza, and the McCormick Building. This is one of a series of photographs that follow the intended route the sculpture was to take from the Queen's Landing at Monroe Harbor, north along Lake Shore Drive, west on East Monroe Street, and north through Millennium Park to SBC Plaza. The plan to move the fully assembled sculpture from a barge in Monroe Harbor to Millennium Park was cancelled when it was decided that the sculpture would be trucked to Chicago in pieces, and assembled on site. |
