Centennial Structures

Did you know that there are structures standing in Mount Prospect that are over 100 years old? These structures are not only the building blocks of the community, but they also witnessed the Village’s incorporation in 1917.

If your house was built during or before 1917, you can obtain a sign from the Centennial Commission to place in your front yard declaring your home as a Centennial House.
