The Tribute to Olympic and Paralympic Athletes was designed by architect Jeffery S. Poss, who explains that it, "rises from an ordinary prairie landscape transformed by playing fields, gardens, and a community college campus. It honors the extraordinary achievements of Champaign County residents who have participated in the Olympic and Paralympic Games, and its granite platform is inscribed with their names and the Olympic symbol of linked rings.
