The Commission on Chicago Landmarks has not yet designated any landmarks in West Elsdon. However, Preservation Chicago hopes for Designated Chicago Landmarks in every neighborhood of Chicago.
Chicago Historic Resources Survey
Between 1983 and 1995 the City surveyed every Chicago building put up before 1940, color-coding each one for age, physical integrity and possible significance. Red and orange are the top two of seven ratings, and they still carry weight in preservation review. A building in the survey is not necessarily a landmark.
