Dreaming Architecture: From Chicago to The World

Is the American dream any different to the British dream or the German? I had a dream in Chicago in 1988; on my arrival, before starting as an architectural intern at Skidmore Owings & Merrill at 33 W Monroe. It was about looking for the building of Helmut Jahn; the Postmodernist Thompson Center. It was not to be found; but another building did appear that seemed to honour water. It was black ,lit with sunlight and showed dark greys in the shadow and greens from the reflection of the water. It was not until much later in my career/education that I stumbled on a similar construction, in a lecture at the Architectural Association. Peter Cook and Christine Hawley were presenting their Osaka Folly, built in 1990 in Japan. Of course I did go to the Thompson Center, where they issued my Social Security Card. I was taken that the vast space that escaped the laws of fire protection, due to it being a governmental building. It too had taken the lives of 5 construction workers. A cable lowering a bucket carrying six construction workers at the building site broke, hurling five of them 80 feet to their deaths and seriously injuring the sixth.

I had a dream that I could understand architecture and become an architect.

THANK YOU @preservationchicago and everyone who signed and shared the petition to #savethewarehouse in #Chicago. More action is needed. Read below.

#HouseMusicHistory

Reposted from @5.magazine BIG NEWS: A #Chicago commission on landmarks will consider arguments for granting preliminary landmark status to the site of seminal house music club The Warehouse this Thursday!

The original location of The Warehouse was added to the agenda of the Commission on Chicago Landmarks’ next regular meeting after a grassroots campaign, worldwide media coverage and an online petition lead by architectural conservation group @preservationchicago

The petition has gathered more than 12,000 signatures at press time.

Opened by Robert Williams, The Warehouse was #FrankieKnuckles first residency in Chicago. Originally called US Studios, The Warehouse operated at several locations throughout the city including the three-story building at 206 S. Jefferson in Chicago’s #WestLoop neighborhood. The site is revered as a landmark of importance to Chicago’s house music scene and the African-American and LGBTQ+ community.

The building has long been converted into a commercial office space, and sold to new owners in December. Preservation Chicago cited 206 S. Jefferson as one of Chicago’s seven “most endangered” buildings.

According to a draft document of the agenda, the Commission will consider whether The Warehouse building meets two criteria for landmark designation according to the Chicago municipal code.

The Commission on Chicago Landmarks is a body staffed by the Historic Preservation Division of the Chicago Department of Planning and Development. The commission is responsible for recommending sites for legal protection as landmarks as well as reviewing proposals for alteration or demolition of structures considered to be historically or architecturally significant.

The meeting will be held on Thursday April 13 2023 at 12:45 pm Central time. Those interested in speaking or observing the meeting can join the stream by Zoom at the Commission’s website which will be active when the meeting is about to begin. 🔗 Links + more at 5mag.net 🔗

History of The Warehouse: www.preservationchicago.org/the-warehouse-most-endangered-2023/

Reposted from @preservationchicago We’ve all spoken and the City of Chicago has listened: the Warehouse at 206 S. Jefferson AND the Century & Consumers Buildings at 202 and 220 S. State will begin the months-long landmark designation process next Thursday! We are so very excited to see these significant sites of Chicago history be considered for permanent landmark status.

They’re not landmarked yet though! We need your help: please consider writing a letter of support and/or speaking in support of these important places next Thursday, April 13th at 12:45 pm.

All written testimony must be submitted to ccl@cityofchicago.org by 12:45 pm on Wednesday, April 12th. To speak at the hearing itself, please visit the Commission on Chicago Landmarks website for steps to follow (link in bio or feel free to send us a message!).

We could not have done any of this without your support and passion—thank you!

Thank you, Chicago! I had an amazing time at #Chicon8 talking life, art, and fantasy with brilliant people, signed copies of my #FatetheWinxSaga prequel for the first time and saw the gorgeous city properly for the first time too: gothic skyscrapers and all. I’m signing in the Hyatt Regency on East Wacker Drive at 4pm, and then flying away with fond memories. #chicagoculturalcenter #chicagoarchitecture #americanwritersmuseum https://www.instagram.com/p/CiGLYGhrxbf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
