Illinois Institute of Technology Academic Campus
Illinois Institute of Technology Academic Campus, Academic campus and historic district in Bronzeville, Chicago, US
The 60-acre campus features Victorian red brick structures and modernist buildings designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe along Federal Street.
The campus originated in 1890 when Philip Danforth Armour donated funds following Frank Wakely Gunsaulus's Million Dollar Sermon to establish Armour Institute.
The Main Building showcases a stained-glass window dedicated to Philip D. Armour Jr, reflecting the philanthropic influence on educational development in Chicago.
Located near the Dan Ryan Expressway and Chicago Transit Authority's red line, the campus provides multiple transportation options for students and visitors.
The campus design integrates Victorian architecture from 1893 with Miesian modernist buildings from the 1940s, creating an architectural timeline spanning different periods.
