Northerly Meadow
Another important feature of Bessie Coleman Park will be
the new Northerly Meadow, created at the northern end of the peninsula, and
incorporating new, expanded parking for the Adler Planetarium and Bessie
Coleman Park by placing the existing Adler lot underground on multiple
levels.
The resulting new parkland and open space will exceed the
size of DuSable Park, the newest lakefront park. (And funds provided by this
plan will be available to develop DuSable and other parks across the city.)
From Northerly Meadow, visitors will enjoy a spectacular
view of Chicago’s world-famous skyline.
