29th Annual House Walk
September 13, 2015 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Would you like to see inside beautiful Rogers Park homes and learn about their history? Your chance is here! Our 29th annual House Walk will take place on Sunday, September 13th from noon to 4 PM.
The Homes
This year’s House Walk includes several homes near Jarvis Square and Touhy Park in northeast Rogers Park. This area was initially developed around 1878, when Rogers Park was incorporated as a village, and was annexed to the city of Chicago in 1893. Many of the houses on the tour are in the area immediately south and west of the Jarvis station, an area once known as the F.W. Dolands Subdivision. On the east end of the tour, we have a 1908 house designed by noted architect Walter Burley Griffin, husband of Marian Mahony Griffin. Historical walk-bys include murals, the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Emil Bach House, and other neighborhood landmarks.
