Everybody who is still supporting wilbur, Reddit is with you! Tons of love and support is still there from all of us on the wilbur subreddit!
It’s truly devastating that such an amazing man’s legacy had to end up the way he did… typhoid fever is brutal. The inventor of the plane will not be forgotten fellow wilbur wrightians!!

Learning Resources Center, Wilbur Wright College, City Colleges of Chicago, 4300 N Narragansett Ave, Chicago, IL 60634
Founded 1934; Current campus completed 1992, Bertrand Goldberg, architect
BGA designed Wright College as a new campus for the City Colleges of Chicago. It featured four large buildings, and a five acre park on a ten acre site. The project was notable for the Learning Resource Center, a large pyramid-shaped building, as the focal point of the design. Described by Goldberg as a learning center that “could operate for twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week,” the building featured an enclosed central atrium that extended to the top of the pyramid. All the faculty offices were housed in this building, with a library also on the floors around the atrium. So too, all the computer laboratories and special hi-tech learning was located on the first floor. Inside, the corners of the pyramid were “opened up”, making each floor visible from the next, Goldberg hoped to facilitate experiential communication between the students, faculty and staff engaged in various activities.
