Mary Bartelme Park is
a 2.3-acre urban green
space that replaced
an old infirmary in the
West Loop of Chicago,
Ill. Five skewed square
stainless steel arches
form an iconic gateway
at the northwest
corner of the former
brownfield site, and
two large lawn berms
provide ample viewing
space for community
activities such as
parades, recreation,
and movies in the park
on an inflatable screen
(background, right).
