037. Buildings and Campus

Two reports completed by McClier (Chicago), contatining findings on the conditions of two Ludwig Mies van der Rohe-designed buildings on the campus of Illinois Institute of Technology: Carr Memorial Chapel (Restoration Assessment, 2001) and Wishnick Hall (Historic Structure Report, 2003).

Two items related to the Robert F. Carr Memorial Chapel of St. Saviour: 1) Flyer with brief information about Carr Chapel; probably issued as a publicity piece shortly after the building was opened in 1952. 2) Article by Margaret M. Grubiak, "Educating the Moral Scientist: The Chapels at I.I.T. and M.I.T.," published in ARRIS: Journal of the Southeast Chapter of the Society of Architectural Historians (volume 18, 2007) (entire volume on file; gift of Margaret Grubiak)

Presentation-style book apparently prepared and published by the Mies van der Rohe Society of IIT under the title "Robert F. Carr Memorial Chapel of St. Savior, IIT," for presentation to donors supportive of the chapel's restoration. Contains ten pages of color photographs of the chapel's interior a brief history of the chapel. The final page reads "Thank you from the Mies van der Rohe Society and the IIT Community."
