| Title | Lurie Garden, aerial view of construction, February 14, 2004 |
| Description | Aerial view showing the construction of the Lurie Garden. White blocks of lightweight poly-foam fill visible on the southeast corner of the site were used to sculpt and shape the two-and-a-half acre Garden without the added weight of extra soil bearing down on the roof below. Built atop two stories of parking garages and railroad tracks, Millennium Park is one of the largest intensive green roofs in the world. |
