The Cloud Gate was built in 2006 and, like its name implies, was designed to look like a cloud. Clouds, though, can look like beans and this once certainly does so it got the nickname "The Bean". Its designer, Anish Kapoor, did not like the nickname at first. Who can blame him? But it eventually grew on him.
