Site: S Woodland Ave, Midway Plaisance Park, Chicago, Illinois, United State. 60637.

Section of Light and Wind

Personal Challenges:

My personal challenges were not only making the public bathroom, includes the natural light and wind, but also making another public place, which can also be used as a landmark . When I visited the site, there were many people enjoying the picnic, even during the pandemic, but it did not have any public bathrooms in that location. Also, in 1830's, the Midway Plaisance Park was landscaped as a connected stream before, which has a straight path. So I decided to make a public bathroom that also works as an observatory and a landmark .
