Description

Contains a truly remarkable collection of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century residential architecture. Within the 78-block historic district is the single greatest concentration in the world of residences designed by the Prairie School. While internationally famous as the birthplace of the Prairie style, Oak Park is less well known for its other types of well-preserved architecture, ranging from the simple farmhouses of its early settlers to the huge estates of Chicago's industrial giants.

With over 100 photographs and detailed maps of the district, this guide is an indispensable tool for amateurs and experts alike.
