Walking Tour

These maps designate key locations on Loyola’s campus where the physical landscape’s change can be seen.  The red path with numbered bubbles spans the center of campus, while the green bubbles represent additional points of interest shown in the narrative.  If a mobile device is available to you, feel free to explore these sites with their corresponding photographs, which are marked according to the site number below, as well as within the narrative.

The main tour begins at the steps in front of the Klarcheck Information Commons. It moves north toward the space between Dumbach and Cudahy Science Halls, then stops in front of Mertz Hall before backtracking to the eastern entrance of the Damen Student Center. The final sites are at the shuttle stop, followed by the east entrance of Cuneo Hall, and ending at the north corner of Madonna della Strada.
Three extra points of interest lie on the north side of campus. On the east and west corners of the Loyola-Winthrop intersection, one can view the old sites of many Loyola Avenue buildings. One block west of this intersection is Campion Hall on Sheridan Road.
Two sites can be visited on the southern side of campus–the Sacred Heart Shrine between Piper Hall and the Sullivan Center, as well as Piper Hall from a similar vantage point.
