Landmarks Illinois has just released its annual list of 10 most-endangered sites in the state. This year there are ELEVEN.
As usual, Chicago has the most with five: Wrigley Field, Daily News Building, Mates School, Michigan Avenue Streetwall?, and Germania Club and Theatre.
The others:
Fulton County-- Spoon River Bridge (Bernadotte Bridge)
Lincoln-- The Mill
Wheaton-- Adams Memorial Library
Eden-- Burlingame House
Springfield-- Ursuline Academy
Champaign-- Assembly Hall
Lists like these are great for bringing these sites to public attention. Unfortunately, being on the list does not guarantee preservation.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
