Sponsored by the Illinois Chapter of the APA and Landmarks Illinois, the 2009

Chicago. This event integrates with the Burnham Plan Centennial celebration to
focus on 100 years of the Chicago region’s planning history and what it means to
the future of the profession.
Over 600 planning and preservation professionals from Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Minnesota and Wisconsin are expected to convene in September. Mobile workshops
will fan out around the city and across the region to visit the best of
Chicago-area planning. Plenary sessions will examine Burnham’s legacy in the
development of a Midwestern metropolis.
Deadline for proposals by e-mail or postal delivery: February 5, 2009, 5pm.
