Synopsis

This full-sized, four-color replica edition of legendary urban designer Daniel Burnham's groundbreaking vision for a new Chicago marks the 2009 centennial of its original publication. If urban planners now talk about ecological responsibility and the necessity of green space in the built environment, Burnham deserves much of the credit for showing us the way.

With a new introductory essay by Northwestern professor Carl Smith. Published in collaboration with the Commercial Club of Chicago and the Chicago History Museum.
