Burnham Prize 2026: The Future of State:

Last week, a group of our jurors walked State Street together, observing, discussing, and reflecting on its past, present, and future. We asked them: "What assumptions about State Street do you hope competitors will challenge?"

Swipe through to hear their thoughts!

How about we make a stretch of State Street pedestrian only? Add a rotating street food, craft, and art vendors. Let’s turn it into a year-round cultural spot that showcase our local Chicago talents from food, to art, to music. It’d be great if we can slow down, and walk, and snack, listen to music, look around and really admire at the architecture that we normally zip through.

Agree with all of these folks - history is the past, the present being made and the future planned for. Let's keep trying to get all 3 right for the greatest number of us.
