1601 N. Milwaukee Ave.

The rehabilitation of the former Noel State Bank Building in the Milwaukee Avenue Historic District was assisted by preservation staff, who ensured  the 1919 building’s historic details would be appropriately preserved during its conversion to a Walgreens convenience store and pharmacy. After being closed for several years, the 30,000-square-foot structure in West Town hosted a grand re-opening attended by Mayor Emanuel in December 2012.
