Springtime in Old Town
Mike and I live in the Old Town Triangle District of Lincoln Park, a landmark area featuring historic homes. These photos were taken on a hot day in early May on Lincoln Park West and Menonomee Street.
Row houses designed in Queen Anne-style by Louis Sullivan.
The former Wacker family home and coach house.
Looking towards the Sears Tower.
The Meyer farmhouse built on meadowland in 1874.
Looking down Orleans Street.
The last houses to be built in this style before wood was banned as a
building material following the Chicago Fire of 1871.
