ATTACHMENT 2: PROMONTORY POINT
Promontory Point is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The City is committed to protecting and preserving this cultural asset and taking a preservation-based approach to shoreline
protection. The image below is from shoreline protection installed at Diversey Harbor which takes a similar preservation-based approach. The specific design details for rehabilitation of the Promon-
tory Point shoreline will be developed as part of this project. The City of Chicago, through its partnership with the US Army Corps of Engineers, has successfully built new revetments throughout Chica-
go including segments from 51st to 54th Street, 43rd to 45th Street, and 33rd to 37th Street.
