Technical amendment to Newport Avenue Chicago Landmark District boundaries to reflect relocation of contributing building at 945-953 W Newport Ave
The Chicago City Council's 2005 Newport Avenue (Landmark) District includes the CTA-owned Vautravers Building. The CTA's 2014 modernization project led to a 2015 agreement for the building's relocation, approved by the City's Historic Preservation Division, the Federal Transit Administration, and the Commission on Chicago Landmarks. In August 2021, the building was relocated to a new foundation, prompting the creation of an Amended District.
