The Story

In 1872, during the effort to help Chicago rebuild after the fire gutted the city in October 1871, Charles Holden commissioned the CCP Holden Building. As the president of Chicago's City Council, he was also instrumental in coordinating the entire city's efforts to bounce back. Today the CCP Holden building (1027 W. Madison) is a fixture in the west loop and a registered landmark. We were lucky to come across a few large douglas fir boards that were removed during a recent renovation, and we're putting them back to work by incorporating them into a limited edition writing instrument.
