Daniel Burnham’s 1909 Plan of Chicago famously proposed preserving the city’s lakefront access for all residents and preventing development along its shores. Since then, Chicago has seen the value in protecting and enhancing natural spaces, even seen in the city’s motto, “A City in a Garden.” Author Peter Bowman takes readers on a tour of Chicago’s vast urban ecology, starting with the lakefront, moving to parks and boulevards, and then to sanctuaries and corridors. Accompanied by stunning aerial and landscape photography, City in a Garden is a visual exploration of the lush greenery, turquoise waters, and hidden oases that make up one of the world’s greatest cities.
Pete Bowman is a writer, designer, and builder. A lifelong Chicagoan, Pete has long been fascinated by Chicago history and its urban ecology. He has worked to develop residences and commercial spaces for over 15 years, with a special interest in affordable housing. He lives in Edgewater with his wife and son, and loves to explore the lakefront on his (e)bike.
