In an effort to make searching our site easier and more organized, I’ve decided to create a page for each state. The goal of this page is to have a link to each article. The map above provides a visual of the location of each building in Illinois.

Update January 2016:

We have verified all the buildings in Illinois that have or had artwork. Although we have visited each site, there are a few I’d like to revisit for better images. If you have further questions in any of the post office murals in Illinois please comment on the article you are inquiring about.

Update February 2021:

We’ve been working on a new map for Illinois. If you were familiar with the old one you’d realize it was really difficult to see the locations in the Chicago-land area. We’ve broken out this section of the map and added it separately for your reading enjoyment.
