Some great articles in last week's and this week's Reader.
Regarding Michael Reese Hospital and the Olympics:
* Michael Reese Hospital: The First Sacrificial Lamb
Regarding the 100th anniversary of Daniel Burnham's Plan of Chicago:
* An Odd Way to Honor Burnham - Lynn Becker takes on the process by which the centennial pavilion architects were selected (and, incidentally, slaps down some gibberish from Colin Rowe and his followers about how "there was no Chicago School of architecture".)
* The Big Aluminum Hot Potato - will the centennial pavilions ever actually be finished?
* Go Ahead, Make Little Plans - a challenge to the Last Four Miles proposal (a plan which, by the by, I support wholeheartedly. It's ridiculous that one can't bike to Rogers Park via the lakefront.)
