Description
A stunning example of historic preservation, this Chicago architecture book explores the history and restoration of the Monroe Building—an architectural gem in the heart of the city. After its 2005 purchase by Colonel (IL) Jennifer N. Pritzker, IL ARNG (Retired), the building was carefully restored and transformed into the home of the Pritzker Military Museum & Library. Through archival materials, photography, and detailed narrative, this book offers a window into Chicago’s architectural evolution, told through the rebirth of one of its most treasured landmarks.
