    THE LUCAS CULTURAL ARTS MUSEUM MAYOR’S TASK FORCE REPORT | CHICAGO May 16, 2014 Mayor Rahm Emanuel City Hall - 121 N LaSalle St. Chicago, IL 60602 Dear Mayor Emanuel, As co-chairs of the Lucas Cultural Arts Museum Site Selection Task Force, we are delighted to provide you with our report and recommendation for a site for the Lucas Cultural Arts Museum. The response from Chicagoans to this opportunity has been tremendous. After considering more than 50 sites, discussing comments from our public forum and website, reviewing input from more than 300 students, and examining data from myriad sources, we are thrilled to recommend a site we believe not only meets the criteria you set out but also goes beyond to position the Museum as a new jewel in Chicago’s crown of iconic sites. Our recommendation offers to transform existing parking lots into a place where students, families, residents, and visitors from around our region and across the globe can learn together, enjoy nature, and be inspired. Speaking for all Task Force members, we were both honored to be asked to serve on this Task Force and a bit awed by your charge to us. The vision set forth by George Lucas is bold, and the stakes for Chicago are equally high. Chicago has a unique combination of attributes that sets it apart from other cities—a history of cultural vitality and groundbreaking arts, a tradition of achieving goals that once seemed impossible, a legacy of coming together around grand opportunities, and not least of all, a setting unrivaled in its natural and man-made beauty.

  • Historic Greystone at 1463 Berwyn Avenue Saved!
    Preservation Chicago Month-In-Review Newsletter October 2017 Historic Greystone at 1463 Berwyn Avenue Saved! 1436 W. Berwyn Avenue, Photo Credit Redfin UPDATE: The intense, sustained and widespread opposition to the planned demolition and redevelopment of the historic greystone at 1436 W. Berwyn Avenue has yielded a likely victory. The historic greystone at 1436 W. Berwyn Avenue is under contract to a new preservation-sensitive buyer who has plans to deconvert the two flat to a single family home and to restore its historic features. Additionally, the landscaped side yard and mature elm tree will be preserved. The sale of this historic property removes the property from the immediate threat posed by development plans to build out the site and create six-unit building with elements of the historic façade incorporated into the new construction. Without any historic landmark district protections and with existing zoning that allowed for a much larger, more dense building as-of-right, the path to a preservation outcome was highly unlikely. However, the extraordinary rapid response preservation advocacy efforts of Kathy Klink-Flores of the Lakewood Balmoral Residents Council, the East Andersonville Residents Council (EARC), Maureen Murnane of the Lakewood Balmoral Residents Council, and other community members and community organizations, which included well-attended public meetings, a petition drive, and other community organizing efforts deserves much of credit for this excellent preservation outcome. Page 1 of 38 Preservation Chicago Month-In-Review Newsletter October 2017 Preservation Chicago applauds the consistent support and leadership of 48th Ward Alderman Harry Osterman who played an important role in the preservation effort and outcome.

  • 2020 Annual Report and Preservation Awards
    COMMISSION ON CHICAGO LANDMARKS CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2020 SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING THE YEAR 2020 The global pandemic which advanced across the world in 2020 led to COVID-19 public health emergency measures at both state and local levels. In mid-March, Mayor Lightfoot issued a stay-at-home order paralleling that of Governor Pritzker. City Hall was closed and most employees were required to work from home remotely, many for the first time. Having handled much of their work online, Historic Preservation staff were able to continue serving the public while transitioning to working and meeting remotely. Fortunately no agenda items had to be heard in April so the Commission canceled that month’s meeting. Meanwhile, staff worked to transition future Commission and Committee meetings to virtual ones as allowed per City Council emergency legislation later codified statewide by the Governor. Chairman Leon issued emergency rules and the first virtual Commission on Chicago Landmarks and Permit Review Committee meetings were held in May. As of the end of 2020, meetings continued to be held virtually and staff continued to work remotely for the majority of time. As you will see from this report, work continued unabated for the Commission and its staff who proudly served the City of Chicago through this difficult and unprecedented time. OVERVIEW The Commission on Chicago Landmarks, whose nine members are appointed by the Mayor and the City Council, was established in 1968 by city ordinance. The Commission is responsible for recommending to City Council which areas, districts, places, buildings, structures, works of art, and other objects within the City of Chicago should be designated as Chicago Landmarks.
