Mr. Thomas Buechele
The School ofthe Art Institute of Chicago 116 S. Michigan Ave, Suite 1600 Chicago, IL 60603
 
Dear Mr. Buechele,
 
Thank you for presenting the signage plans for The School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) to the Chicago Loop Alliance Planning & Advocacy Committee. The Committee supports the signage proposals going forward for all ofthe buildings that were presented. Signage proposals were presented for the following SAIC buildings: 112 S. Michigan Ave, 116 S. Michigan, 37 S. Wabash and 280 S. Columbus.
 
The Committee appreciates how the signage is customized to complement the architecture of each building, yet is still identifiable as SAIC's branding. Additionally, the Committee believes that the signage could be even more impactful and possibly incorporate student work.
 
The Chicago Loop Alliance supports the signage proposals going forward, and always looks forward to seeing the positive impact that SAIC is having in the Loop.
 
 
 
 
 
Sincerely,
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Stan Nitzberg
