## Resource

Chicago’s Millennium Park set the gold standard for public spaces two decades ago—and now the city is hunting for its next big, bold idea. World Business Chicago launched “Horizon Lines,” a competition drawing over 200 submissions, including one from a nine-year-old, to reimagine the city’s future. Six finalists are vying for the spotlight, proposing everything from highway caps to reconnect neighborhoods, green boulevards, urban farms with housing, tree-as-infrastructure models, and alleyway makeovers. One entry even reimagines waste as art and design material. The goal? Visionary, equitable, and inspiring ideas that spark lasting change—because Chicago’s legacy is built on “making no little plans.” Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
