Attracted by landscaped parkways and the requirement that all houses be in
the "bungalow mode," buyers in this development built
residences--largely between 1907 and 1925--that show the influence of
the Prairie and Craftsman styles and also the popularity of the American
Four-Square. The subdivision originally was marketed under the name of
"Irving Park Villa." |
