Summary:
The suburban residential area running north above Chicago along the majestic shoreline of Lake Michigan is the fulfillment of the American dream for a cool, forested, refuge from the industrialized urban environment. Formed by nine towns founded mostly in the 1860s and 1870s, the North Shore of Chicago runs 13 to 35 miles north of the Loop, placing country living within easy commute of work, shopping, and entertainment. North Shore Chicago: Houses of the Lakefront Suburbs, 1890–1940 is the first detailed history of the residences and the noted owners and architects who created this famous Chicago enclave. Illustrated with over 350 duotone photographs and floor plans, many published here for the first time, North Shore Chicago recounts the stories of Chicago's great industrial and merchant families—including the Armours, Donnelleys, and McCormicks—and their creative interaction with both the region’s leading architects—David Adler, Daniel Burnham, Howard Van Doren Shaw, and Frank Lloyd Wright—and their national counterparts— Delano and Aldrich, Harrie Lindeberg, and Charles Platt. Their collaboration produced some of the finest examples of American residential architecture of the 20th century.
