Chicago Tribute Markers of Distinction honors notable Chicagoans by designating the locations where they lived or worked, contributing to the historical narrative of the city. Established in 1997, the program has erected eighty markers that link contemporary Chicago with its influential figures and events.
This initiative is a collaborative effort involving the Chicago Cultural Center Foundation, the Chicago Tribune Foundation, and the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs. The markers serve to celebrate and acknowledge the lasting impact of these individuals on the city and beyond.
