The site is a National Historic Landmark. Credit: Mike Walker, Kincaid Mounds Support Organization • Why it is endangered: Lack of funding, soil erosion and the ongoing threat of amateur archaeologists disturbing the mounds. Almost one thousand years ago, during the Middle Mississippian period, Mississippian people began building a settlement at the site that is now known as Kincaid Mounds. Today, however, flooding and limited funding is threatening the survival of this prehistoric resource.

As of the 2010 census, the population was 916,924,[2] making it Illinois' second-most populous county. Its county seat is Wheaton.[3] County County of DuPage With a population nearing one million, DuPage County has become mostly developed and suburbanized, although some pockets of farmland remain in the county's western and northern parts. The county has a vast socioeconomic profile; residents of Hinsdale, Naperville, and Oak Brook include some of the wealthiest people in the Midwest.

  • Preservation Chicago Unveils the 2020 Chicago 7 Most Endangered
    Preservation Chicago Unveils the 2020 Chicago 7 Most Endangered... Thompson Center © Serhii Chrucky OVERVIEW Preservation Chicago has selected the James R. Thompson Center/State of Illinois Building, for a fourth year, to our Chi- cago’s 7 Most Endangered List. The Thompson Center is an iconic and integral component to Chicago’s downtown and its municipal core. The building is noted for its prominent curvi- linear corner and polychromed exterior facades, its many pub- lic spaces, open plazas and arcades, its voluminous 17-story interior atrium, its concourse-level food halls, pedway, CTA transit center and public art. The potential sale and deaccession of a public governmental building, determined by elected officials to be too expensive to repair, is cause for great concern. The potential loss or de- struction of the Thompson Center would also be a huge em- barrassment to both the City of Chicago and the State of Illi- 4 Preservation Chicago Chicago 7: James R. Thompson Center / State of Illinois Building Thompson Center © Serhii Chrucky nois, as this building is well documented, published and recognized as an architectural landmark in many architec- tural circles. Designed by Helmet Jahn, an architect of great note on the world’s stage, the potential loss of this building would be tremendous, ranking among the many notable structures which Chicago has allowed to be wan- tonly demolished. Many of the demolished buildings were great works of art and architecture lost forever and among Chicago’s most notable missteps of the past. Jahn’s extensive commissions extend from his Chicago-based office to buildings and projects around the world.
