I built an interactive map of every officially designated Chicago Landmark
Made a little side project I've been wanting to for a while, and decided to share it with others who may be curious: an interactive map of all 407 officially designated Chicago Landmarks, pulling live data from the City's open data portal.
[https://chicago-landmarks.vercel.app/\]
A few things it does:
- Filter by Community Area or search by name, address, or architect
- Click any landmark to see photos, a description, designation date, and a link to the official City page
- Filter by the decade it was landmarked
- "Near me" button that sorts the list by walking distance
- Dark mode
Would love any and all feedback!
