Editing Grant Park (Chicago) (section)

===Gardens===
There are several gardens and flower displays throughout the park. Millennium Park houses the [[Lurie Garden]], known for its display of tall grass flowers, particularly [[lavender]], and a decorative post-modern water stream. To the east, across the [[BP Pedestrian Bridge]], Daley Park holds tall grass plantings. To the northeast in Daley Park, at 375 East Randolph Drive, is the Richard & Annette Bloch Cancer Survivors Garden, marked by two huge doric columns from the demolished [[Chicago Federal Building]] and a wrought-iron pergola. The garden contains numerous walkways lined with planters and is one of several similar spaces created nationwide by R. A. Bloch Cancer Foundation.<ref name="bloch">{{cite web |title=Cancer Survivors Garden |url=http://www.explorechicago.org/city/en/things_see_do/attractions/park_district/cancer_survivors_garden.html |publisher=City of Chicago |access-date=June 15, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110623060352/http://www.explorechicago.org/city/en/things_see_do/attractions/park_district/cancer_survivors_garden.html |archive-date=June 23, 2011 |df=mdy-all}}</ref>
