On this day in 1991, Chicago Public Library's Harold Washington Library Center opened to the public! This clip was shot about a week later as 16mm B-roll for "Skyline: Chicago," a series on the city's history and urban design that aired on WTTW - Chicago PBS.

The most beautiful library I’ve been 🥹 The Harold Washington Library has a Chicago hidden gem on the 9th floor where you can read, study, or learn about the history of Harold Washington (previous Chicago Mayor). It’s called the Winter Garden. Enjoy the warm sunlight, charming Chicago architecture and quiet space for a lovely afternoon. Entry is free and you must visit during library hours. #kayleejochicago #chicago #chicagogram #igerschicago #instachicago #chicagoblogger #choosechicago #chicago
