Jewelers Center Neon Sign on Wabash Avenue, Chicago
The illuminated marquee of the Jewelers Center glows along South Wabash Avenue in Chicago’s historic Jewelers Row District. Located at 5 S Wabash, this 1920s-era Art Deco building is home to more than 180 independent jewelers and gem traders, many specializing in custom design and repair. The tower, part of the landmark Mallers Building, stands within the Loop’s long tradition of craftsmanship and trade that dates back to the city’s early commercial boom. At night, the neon-lit sign continues to evoke Chicago’s mid-century downtown energy, linking the modern financial core with its industrial and artisanal past.
