Case Study: Fort Sheridan

Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve sits on the shore of Lake Michigan north of Chicago. A former Army base with more than a century of active service, Fort Sheridan has a rich history and a beautiful setting brought to life by Taylor Studios’ extensive interpretive trail signage and interactive exhibits. The exhibits include a 30-foot wide Red-tailed Hawks nest that is used as an outdoor classroom, a reconstruction of a WWII anti-aircraft gun emplacement, and reconditioned iron gates and gatepost.
