The Bicentennial Plaza is located just east of Millennium Park. The easiest way to visit the luxurious area is to take the BP Bridge which connects Millennium Park to The Bicentennial Plaza. The address is 337 E Randolph Dr Chicago, IL 60601
Whats There?
Well...theres a lot to see actually, this park takes up quite a bit of land providing wonderful views of the city skyline, the lake, and Millennium Park. Once you walk through the park you will find lots of seating, a skate rink/skateboarding areas, good quiet environments, and tennis courts. Throughout the year the park is used for programs including; yoga, fitness, aerobics, and preschool classes. In the winter there is a great ice rink which is sometimes better than the packed Millennium Park one.
Why You Should Visit...
While I was out and about discovering new parks and getaways I found this place tucked away. I had walked across the BP Bridge because I thought it looked really cool...not knowing what was on the other side. Once i go to the park itself the first thing I noticed was all the grass! It had way more than any other place I had visited thus far and was a nice change from the pavement and rocks. Like the other two it was very quiet and peaceful, but what I really liked was the view of Lake Michigan. Granted the park does sit right next to a very busy interstate, it is still pretty quiet. There are also walking paths that take you as far as navy pier and the shedd. Its a nice lake front area to go relax in!
