A note for M. Blateyron - these Botanical Gardens, despite their name, are not in Chicago at all, but in a remote suburb with no public transportation access. >For its size, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of >public sundials in Chicago. Prolly not; but there is a prominent one that's been overlooked so far - wrote FB offlist but now we need to stand up just a bit for the honor, such as it is, of the Windy City: at the NE corner of North Avenue and Clark Street, on the grounds of the Chicago Historical Society, there is a very striking sundial about 18 feet tall is my guess, of a type which a non-sundialist will find very unusual. I apologize for being a gnomonic layman and thus incapable of describing it properly (or providing a photo online), but it isn't your usual stick-in-the-air thingy.
