Jay Pritzker Pavilion

Jay Pritzker Pavilion, also known as Pritzker Pavilion or Pritzker Music Pavilion, is a bandshell in Millennium Park in the Loop community area of Chicago in Cook County, Illinois, United States. It is located on the south side of Randolph Street and east of the Chicago Landmark Historic Michigan Boulevard District. The pavilion was named after Jay Pritzker, whose family is known for owning Hyatt Hotels. The building was designed by architect Frank Gehry, who accepted the design commission in April 1999; the pavilion was constructed between June 1999 and July 2004, opening officially on July 16, 2004.

Pritzker Pavilion serves as the centerpiece for Millennium Park and is the new home of the Grant Park Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the Grant Park Music Festival, the nation's only remaining free outdoor classical music series. It also hosts a wide range of music series and annual performing arts events. Performers ranging from mainstream rock bands to classical musicians and opera singers have appeared at the pavilion, which even hosts physical fitness activities such as yoga. All rehearsals at the pavilion are open to the public; trained guides are available for the music festival rehearsals, which are well-attended.

Millennium Park is part of the larger Grant Park. The pavilion, which has a capacity of 11,000, is Grant Park's small event outdoor performing arts venue, and complements Petrillo Music Shell, the park's older and larger bandshell. Pritzker Pavilion is built partially atop the Harris Theater for Music and Dance, the park's indoor performing arts venue, with which it shares a loading dock and backstage facilities. Initially the pavilion's lawn seats were free for all concerts, but this changed when Tori Amos performed the first rock concert there on August 31, 2005.

he Art of Green Demolition

Nowadays, the focus is on the environment and the demolitions field is no exception. There is a green way of removing a building called deconstruction which is simply removing pieces of a building one by one and then sending some portions of the disassembled structure off to be recycled or reused. This approach to tearing down a building is one of the best in terms of being environmentally-friendly but it can be more expensive and time consuming than controlled demolition. However, if you care for the environment, then it is recommended that you use this option. You could even reuse the materials that you salvage on your old building in creating a new one. The usual process is to first take out all items such as doors, windows, light fixtures and other easily removable items. Then, it is normal to start removing the structural items starting from the roof and working down towards the foundations. Deconstruction does not have to be limited to buildings and something like bridges demolition is also possible via this method. In fact, any structure can be disassembled and sent off to local salvaging contacts or landfills. Talk to a demolitions company to find out exactly what they can do to assist you with deconstructing your building. They should also have a list of all businesses nearby who can take in your used materials. Some of these businesses will purchase your materials from you while others may be not-for-profit organisations specialising in helping the environment.

1. As pointed out in my free report, all digital hearing aid microchips are manufactured by only two manufacturers world wide. So, the names and models end up being insignificant other than the companies have generally made a good name for themselves and the unit construction may vary in quality and appearance.
