This neighborhood remains one of the best kept secrets in the country! Twenty-five city blocks making up one of the largest collections of late Victorian houses left standing in the United States. Frank Lloyd Wright studied this area in his planning of his Oak Park Project in Illinois. Pristine examples of Colonial. Georgian, Italian Renaissance, Queen Ann, Dutch Colonial, French Second Empire and Arts and Crafts homes fill the streets which were once home to city founders, philanthropists and the 'socially elite' of the late Victorian and Jazz Age.
