Soldier Field — The Spaceship
Museum Campus, Chicago
A Preview
"Walk back toward the mainland. On your right, you'll see something strange: a 90-year-old Greek Revival stadium with what appears to be a spaceship landed inside it. This is Soldier Field. Home of the Chicago Bears. One of the most controversial architectural decisions in Chicago history. The original stadium opened in 1924 — designed to look like an ancient Roman colosseum."
