Our mission is to educate the public on the life, works and legacy of Benjamin Marshall and to revive his dialogue on the role of architecture in a civic and urban environment.
Benjamin H. Marshall (1874-1944)
Benjamin H. Marshall was a major influence in the architectural history of modern Chicago. Marshall created traditionally detailed buildings that functioned within modern society, ingeniously juxtaposing, conservative and modern features.
Marshall's influence on Chicago's architecture was significant, as he was responsible for the development of many of the city's iconic landmarks.
Marshall was known for his ornate and grandiose designs, which often featured intricate details and luxurious materials. He was also a master of scale, often creating designs in an effort to capture the grandeur of his surroundings.
His works have been praised for their timelessness and elegance, and he is remembered today as one of the most influential architects of the early 20th century.
