- hosting
an exhibition [March 26-May 2] of six winning
- visions
[100 submissions] for a northern extension of
- Chicago's
Lincoln Park. The challenge was to address
- the
complex architectural, planning, environmental,
- ecological,
recreational, and social needs of the site while
- balancing
city and local requirements and public and
- private
interests. One of the winning proposals was
