The federal government has closed the sidewalk in front of buildings it owns at the southwest corner of State and Adams streets, citing a threat to pedestrians from deteriorating facades. The property includes two early 20th century skyscrapers that preservationists want to save.
“They just haven’t been the best stewards of these structures. It seems like demolition by neglect,” he said.
Miller’s group has backing from 20 religious organizations and from Dominican University in River Forest to operate the buildings as a cooperative archives center. He said that type of use could bring limited public access and allay the worries about security for federal courts. During a July hearing of the Commission on Chicago Landmarks, Pallmeyer said the buildings should be torn down.
The landmarks panel in July directed city staff to prepare a report on the buildings’ historic and architectural merits. It has taken no action since then on naming the taller buildings Chicago landmarks.
