Overview

The Esplanade showcases dramatic elm allées, a pavilion lined with sheared cone topiaries, and a row of waterspouts emerging from pools of water. Conceived by one of the greatest landscape architects of the twentieth century, Dan Kiley, and designed by colleague Peter Morrow Meyer, the Esplanade is one of the Chicago Botanic Garden's most public spaces, bringing visitors down to the water in a most inviting way. This space encompasses the Waterfront Terrace and O'Neil Plaza. * Requires tent at additional cost.
