Charter One Pavilion to get massive lawn seating

(MCT) CHICAGO — The concert pavilion at Northerly Island could expand this summer with new lawn seating that could hold 20,000 people.

Under the proposal by the Chicago Park District, 5.9 acres of land by the Charter One Pavilion may be reconfigured to feature lawn-style seating and additional trees. Plans also include increasing the seasonal venue's fixed seating from 8,000 to 8,600, according to an agenda for the city's Plan Commission.
