Graceland Cemetery: Tomb of Daniel Burnham..





Daniel Burnham, 1846 - 1912
Daniel Burnham, famous for his dictum, “Make no little plans.” he indeed practiced what he preached. He was chief of construction for the 1893 Columbian Exposition, and his Chicago Plan of 1909. Burnham is credited for Chicago’s beautiful lakefront and boulevards. So it seems fitting that his final resting place is on a pleasant, wooded isle in the lake at Graceland..
