World’s Largest High Tech Outdoor Artists’ Canvas Hits Chicago
Chicago's efforts to turn the riverfront into as big an attraction as the shoreline of Lake Michigan just got an enormous boost, and that's no understatement.
The owners of the four-million square foot Merchandise Mart are turning the building's 2.6 acre facade into one giant projection canvas for local artists, according to wgntv.com.
I sure hope this is ready to go by St. Patricks's Day when we all be there to see the river turn green.
