Stop the Demolition of the James R. Thompson Center

The James R. Thompson Center is Chicago’s best example of grandly scaled Postmodern architecture. But Governor J.B. Pritzker recently signed legislation allowing for sale of the building within two years to help fill a state budget gap. Without preservation protections, the Thompson Center could face demolition.

Add your name to our list urging Governor Pritzker to require retention and reuse of the Thompson Center when the building is sold.
