Daniel Burnham's greatest contribution to cities was his Beaux-Arts urban planning approach, which emphasized grand, landscaped public spaces and the integration of buildings with their surroundings. He is best known for his Plan of Chicago (1909), which laid out the framework for the modern city and influenced urban planning worldwide. Burnham played a key role in popularizing the City Beautiful movement, which aimed to create visually stunning and functional urban environments.
