Designed by Charles Sumner Frost, Navy Pier is located on Lake Michigan, just East of Chicago's Downtown, Navy Pier has been a Chicago landmark since it first opened in 1916. Originally designed as both a shipping and recreational facility, the Pier also served as a military training site during two world wars, a venue for concerts and exhibitions, and the temporary home for a once-fledgling University of Illinois' Chicago campus. As the Pier fell into disuse during much of the 1970s and 1980s, the State of Illinois and Chicago embarked on a joint plan whereby, in 1989, ownership of the Pier was transferred to the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, the same body which oversees Chicago's McCormick Place. This section of the pier houses the Family Pavilion that includes a food court, the Chicago Children's Museum, and an IMAX theater, and many retail shops. Another feature of this section is the six-story glass atrium, Crystal Gardens, a one-acre indoor palm court.
