Since we recently acquired Baird & Warner‘s, 1928 Portfolio of Fine Apartment Homes, we’ve decided to take pictures of extant buildings that are featured within the folio, and include the vintage images with their corresponding original floor plans.
Gotta love #Chicago courtyard apartment buildings
Happy World Art Deco Day. Recently did a walking tour with @chiarchitecture and got to check out the 135 South LaSalle St. Building, an #artdeco gem in the Windy City… captured some beautiful details. #chicago #architecture #historicbuildings #decodetails #skyscraper #1920s

The long vacant Guyon Hotel w/red & cream brick and terra cotta ornament in Chicago’s West Garfield Park. A photo taken by the Chicago Architectural Photography Company not long after its completion in 1928 vs. one of my pics from a couple of years ago. Let’s save this building!
These signs aren't new, but they are grotesque on the side of this beautiful Art Deco building. 55th St. and Lake Park, Chicago.

Did you know that approximately 2,736 trucks pass DAILY through 31st and Pulaski? Do you want to learn more about the impact of trucks in the community? Join LVEJO and members of the NETZ campaign on Saturday, April 27th from 11am-2pm CT!
And is there any development that can justify impinging on our commitment to a lakefront, to quote A. Montgomery Ward, "forever open, free, and clear"? I look forward to providing more information on this proposal as it is made available to my office.

An unfortunate loss to the neighborhood occurred in 1960, when the former home of Robert Todd Lincoln, located across the street from 60~70 East Scott, at 1234 Lake Shore Dr. - was demolished. The house was designed by noted architect Solon S. Beman. (viewed from the SE, c. 1900)
Shoutout to @ChicagoParks for an amazing weekend. We took our son ice skating for the first time at McFetridge yesterday, and this morning, we checked out the Garfield Park Conservatory! Plus soccer practice in a park, the farmers market in a park, and lots of playground time. 💚
2833-2835 (formerly 1237-1239) W. Congress, Chicago. Built ca. 1886 and once the home of major league ball player Ed Williamson's family. The Eisenhower Expressway is now across the street.

@kynakwado It was a key tactic of the building’s flamboyant architect, Benjamin Marshall.
@fynmere Yeah, thank goodness it hasn’t been subjected to a bad makeover. My old phone doesn’t have a wide lens so I couldn’t capture the 1990s addition by Thomas Beeby. It does look inviting though!
The Perry H. Smith Jr. House (1886) at 1400 N. Astor in Chicago’s Gold Coast is a Romanesque Revival-style design by architects Cobb & Frost. The best-known owner of the home was Dorothy Wrigley Offield who lived here for more than 50 yrs until her death in 1979 at the age of 92.
