At CrossFunction

CrossFunction is a community of people from different areas working safely together. A place where history informs, design accelerates, and culture motivates professionals to be well and do great work. The Boulevard Arcade was originally designed as one-story prairie-style structure in 1906 by prominent Oak Park architect, E.E. Roberts. In 1922 a second story was added by Chicago architect, Arthur Jacobs and the building was transformed into a multi-tenant indoor shopping arcade devoted to women. In 2007 the building was restored to it's approximate the 1922 design and was officially dedicated an Oak Park Historical Landmark. Today, the arcade still boasts the brilliance of it's past, including exquisite tin ceilings, iron staircases, terrazzo flooring, and hardwood frames and doors. The main conference room features a spectacular working vault door, where in its heyday as a mall, resident merchants safely secured high priced garments. Like you, we are adapting to a new normal and sparing no effort to ensure the safety and well-being of our community.
