GAYLORD BUILDING PERMANENT EXHIBIT

The Gaylord Building is a historic building located in downtown Lockport, Illinois. First constructed in 1838, the Gaylord Building acted as a key location for the construction of the Illinois & Michigan Canal. Today, it serves dual purposes as both a historic landmark and an adaptable space with opportunities to explore history, engage with fine art, and learn more about the I&M Canal. The Permanent Exhibit focuses on impact of the Illinois & Michigan Canal on the development of Northeastern Illinois.
