Welcome to Pullman

Community Voice and Collective Action Since 1960

The Pullman Civic Organization (PCO) brings residents and homeowners of Chicago's Far South Side neighborhood together through this membership-driven organization. Pullman, now a National Historical Park, began as a company town created by the Pullman Palace Car Company in the 1880s and later became a national symbol of labor rights. Today, members of the PCO actively embrace this legacy and serve as stewards of its historic architecture. As volunteers we collectively leverage resources and advocate for issues that matter to our community, reshaped by time.

The Organization is registered as a Not-For-Profit Corporation under the laws of the State of Illinois.

Pullman 250

On Wed., July 8 at 5 pm we celebrate the birth of our nation and renew claims to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness with a reading of the

Declaration of Independence.

UPCOMING AT THE PCO MEETING

As a regular public forum, the PCO hosts occasional presentations of community interest.

All are welcome at our June 17th meeting at 7 pm at the Exhibit Hall, when we will install the new board. We will also discuss a revised bylaws change (click here to see proposed changes). In addition, Andreas Morgen, Supervisor of Animal Control Officers and fellow Pullmanite, will relate how we can coexist with wildlife in an urban setting.
