Ideally situated between the retail corridor along East Hyde Park Boulevard and the diverse restaurants and shops dotting 53rd Street, this building projects the simple geometry of the Arts and Crafts Movement, offering clean lines and expansive windows clearly expressed against a uniform brick backdrop. The overhanging roof and arched doorway, set back from the street in a cozy nook, reflect a distinct Italianate influence while allowing natural light and air to fill the interiors of the projected bays.

Bordering Washington Park to the East, Hyde Park is a popular and culturally diverse South Side community. Lush, spacious parks and the University of Chicago campus dominate the neighborhood. Although there is a wide selection of luxury communities, there are many apartments and rental houses that are surprisingly affordable, attracting students, faculty, staff, and any renters looking for a good deal.
This small park-like neighborhood is rich with history. Hyde Park is home to one of Chicago’s most famous landmarks: The Museum of Science and Industry, the largest science museum in the Western Hemisphere. Hyde Park was also home to the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, several Nobel Prize winners, and former President Barack Obama. The neighborhood is surrounded by beautiful green spaces, lush foliage, and lakefront parks with small beaches. Midway Plaisance Park is a long stretch of parkland with sports facilities and an outdoor skating rink.
