The Pui Tak Center Building on Wentworth anchors the bustling commercial district. Recently it was featured on the news as the winner of a $100,000 grant from the American Express Partners in Preservation. The Pui Tak Center won the grant in November 2007 by garnering the most votes over 25 other historic sites throughout Chicagoland. Built in the 1920s, the architecture showcases traditional Chinese design. Imposing green and red pagoda towers topped with walls of terra cotta flowers and mother lions truly represent the majestic traditions of China. Inside, the reception hall represented the one and only indigenous Chinese shrine in the Midwest. Originally constructed as the On Leong Association Building, this historical landmark became known as the Pui Tak Center (Pui tak means to cultivate and enhance virtues), which is a social service agency run by the Chinese Christian Union Church, a local Christian organization headquartered in Chinatown.
