LINK UNLIMITED
Chicago, Illinois

Antunovich Associates designed the new headquarters and community center for LINK Unlimited, a not-for-profit organization located in Chicago, Illinois. LINK Unlimited has been providing educational and mentoring services to economically disadvantaged African American youth in the Chicago area since 1966. Originally located on the south side of Chicago, LINK Unlimited expanded its services to the west and north sides, but their headquarters remained on the south side. In 2000, LINK began to focus on creating a headquarters that would be centrally located an easily accessible by public transportation. In May 2006, construction was completed on the new LINK Unlimited Headquarters, which provides more than double the space than the previous headquarters and allows the nonprofit organization to offer more services to an increased number of youth.

The facility is used both as an educational facility, providing tutoring, mentoring and programming for students, and to host administrative and special events. It includes a computer laboratory, a versatile auditorium, conference rooms, a cafeteria/kitchen space, administrative offices, informal gathering spaces, and a large lobby with a variety of college and university flags displayed. There is also a resource room with information to help students and their families make decisions about college.
