Summary:
Chicago is quintessential apartment dweller’s city. Landmark apartment houses designed by renowned architects and decorators, past and present - Howard Van Doren Shaw, Benjamin Marshall, David Adler, Mies van der Rohe, SOM, Tigerman McCurry, Vinci Hamp, and Lucien Lagrange - have afforded dramatic views and fabled luxury to apartment residents. "Chicago Apartments: A Century of Lakefront Luxury" presents a unique history of the nearly 100 elevator structures whose amenities, unusual interior spaces, architectural features, and distinctive innovations define the history of Chicago apartment design. Chicago historian Neil Harris traces essential themes in the development of the city and its apartment culture, profiling each apartment building with new research, floor plans, and never published archival duotone photographs of famed buildings dating from 1883 to 2004, including 500 North Lake Shore Drive, 209 East Lake Shore Drive, 1301 North Astor, Marina Towers, and the Hancock. The preface by Sara Paretsky, whose celebrated detective V. I. Warshawki is an astute observer of Chicago’s built landscape and its inhabitants, offers a literary voice to this first-time study of the architectural and cultural history of these buildings.
