There is a lot of history and a ton of art up and down this road along the 1/2 mile stretch, starting at Logan Square and winding up at the Museum and the Rocky statue. Memorials and monuments line the road and make this a really eye-popping piece of real estate. There are plenty of places to relax, sit and have lunch or whatever. There is also a really neat sculpture garden across the street from the Franklin Institute
Without further ado, here are the title of my waymarks, arranged in ascending order with departments numbers and hot links to boot.
