WAX TRAX! - 2449 Lincoln Ave. Landmark Status

Heck yes!!

This place changed my life forever! Where I found Front 242 - Ministry - MBM and so many more unique and creative bands. And can't forget... ACID HORSE!

Long live Wax Trax!

Save this space it’s a Chicago landmark for the music scene….

My husband and I both grew up in Chicago and Wax Trax was part of my childhood and teenage years. Fond memories and we would love to see it become a historic landmark.

Please give this building it's well deserved Landmark Status!

An important part of Chicago cultural history! And a fine building worth keeping, too!

I believe there is cultural significance. It was a record store that turned out to draw people from all over bringing new culture & music genres to Chicago. This then influenced the live music scene.

Preserve Waxtrax! It is an iconic location in Chicago.

I had to move away from Chicago years ago, but WaxTrax is still an iconic location in my memory map of the city I grew up in. An amazing place that should not be lost to time.

Great memories. Please save this building!!!

Such an important institution that is part of music history in Chicago!

Preserve the building! So influential to the Chicago music scene.

The SMITH’s!!!

Places like this are what made chicago special

In honor of all my dead friends from the scene who shall remain unnamed

We need pioneers like these gentleman who promoted a genre that was not mainstream. This diversity is what makes us a great society. Or it was in this time period. The history in this building and those who took the chance on being different from norm needs to be recognized and preserved! Not my favorite kind of music but that is why I support this petition diversity is a fact of life! It cannot be erased! Bless Jim and Dannie for paving the road for the ones to come after them!

Hung out there as a teenager all the time. Great memories

Absolute Chicago history!
