The park is awesome and its access to Millenium Park is great as well. A couple of things bug me about it though including its poor transit access (#60 bus is it as far as I know), poor access to the North Loop (walking up to River East for a movie is an adventure in navigating lower/upper/middle this and that), and probably worst of all is the lack of access to the lake. I mean, the lake is RIGHT THERE and you need to basically walk through an underground homeless shelter to access it.
