Info
Museum Campus is a 57-acre (23 ha) museum park that sits near Lake Michigan in Chicago and surrounds three of the city's most notable museums, all dedicated to the natural sciences: the Adler Planetarium; the Shedd Aquarium; and the Field Museum of Natural History. The park is also the site of Soldier Field football stadium, the Lakeside Center of McCormick Place, as well as Northerly Island, formerly home to Meigs Field airport. The campus comprises the southeast corner of Grant Park. There are currently proposals to expand the Museum Campus southward as the home of both the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art as well as the Barack Obama Presidential Library and Museum.
