LINCOLN PARK sANITARIUM FROM THE LAKE.

ment, and with the advent Of the present
season the publisher of the Daily Meas
lad before the Commissioners of Lincoln
Park q request for site for permanent
Sanitarium within the territory con-
trolled by the commission. After careful
investigation of the grand work that was
being accomplished by this means the
Park Commission granted permission for
the erection on the shore of Lake Michi-
gan of a larger and better building for a
Sanitarium than was possible on the old
site. The location chosen was on the lake
shore and the structure has been construct
ed on piles over the clear waters of the lake,
the building being connected with the
shore by short bridge. 1t may be we'll
to remark here, in passing, that Lincoln
Park is one of the most beautiful parks
in America, extending along the laIe
front for nearly two miles, and containing
within its limits several thousand acres.
The Park Commission has wisely laid out
hundreds of thousands of dollars in pro-
viding beautiful walks and drives and in
adding to the natural beauties of the spot
everything that art could suggest as ap-
propriate and pleasing. The geological
collection is one of the best in the world
undoubtedly the best in this country,
the display of flowers and rare plants
equaled by few, while private enterprise
and public gratitude have erected in
suitable locations costly statuary in honor
of eminent statesmen and literateurs. 1t
is on the eastern edge of this beautiful
park that the Sanitarium is located, with
the leafy groves and fragrant flowers all

about on the shore side and the broad ex-
panse of Lake Michigan tapping its
foundations on the other.
The illustrations show the character
and general appearance Of the structure
designed By the architects, Messrs. Burn
ham & Root. The great platform, 80
feet wide and supported on substantial
piles, projects out into the lake more than
200 feet. The broad, overhanging caves
of its ample roof cover 16, 500 square feet
of floor surface. over which will swing
from $50 to 200 infants hammocks, while
its broad verandas and open-air court at
the lake extremity will readily accommo-
date in all total of 1000 individuals.
The hammock court is screened from
public view SO as to insure necessary
pr vacy without obstructing the free cir
culation of air. while wing panels allow
free access to the verandas and prone
nsdes.
At the shore end are grouped the neces-
sary offices sufficiently indicated in the
floor plan illustration. On the right of
the entrance is commodious reception
room, from which guests are taken into
the doctors Office for the examination
necessary to secure exclusion Of contagi-
Gus diseases and for medical attention ON
occasion. Thence the guests are regis

uroyide chairs, hammocks, etc. The
matron's loom, communicating both with
the Office and the physicians room, is a
commodious dormitory for the care of
critical cases which it may be desired to
keep over night; this will be filed with
cribs. bedding, etc. On the opposite
side of the entrance is large diet
kitchen, also psntries, store rooms, etc.,
and a range of bath rooms and closets.
The whole structure is directly over the
water. the west front being connected
with the park by broad bridge with a
gentle ascent for baby carriages. In
Close proximity to the geological depart
ment and other features of interest, TIE
older children-who, in many cases,
must be brought with the ailing in FAINT
will find ample enjoyment and pastime
without encroaching upon the sanitarium
proper.
The construction is of the most sub
stantial character, but without any at
tempt at elaboration or ornament. Its
architectural effect is secured by SIM
plicity and manifest adaptation of every
feature to its intended use. Immediately
south of the sanitarium-with which it
is connected about midway by bridge
over the intervening ten feet of water
is q 4O0-foot pier, at which boats may
land with guests from the central part OF
the city.
The total cost of the building is over
Sll 900, of which the Daily Ners has
contributed $1,000 and the public the
balance.
