Yeah I noticed that too; I think once the plans are fleshed out further, that 'shed' will have some actual purpose, other than a placeholder, rando design feature. You are totally correct that there needs to be a dedicated cultural destination, considering this is being planned as a fully functional neighborhood.
I understand now what you mean, SIGSEGV. Personally, I think allocating a good chunk of green space is always a good idea. My only gripe with the design is why have the Crescent park in the middle? It just seems more logical/natural to have it along the river, and have more than just a riverwalk, but a more diverse and continuous ecosystem, rather than the split-up that the site plan shows. That way, LaSalle street wouldn't have to have that silly job, it could just be a straight shot from Roosevelt to 15th St.
