The applicant nominates the property under the following criterion: 2; 3; and, 4. Continued from June 8, 2021. The public hearing was re-opened at the June 8, 2021 meeting to allow the property owner the opportunity to provide additional testimony and evidence. MEMORANDUM To: Members of the Preservation Commission From: Cade W. Sterling, City Planner Subject: 2715 Hurd Avewnue – 21PRES-0054 Date: July 9, 2021 Recommendation Following any additional testimony or evidence from the public, nominator, or property owner staff recommends that the Commission make a motion to close the public hearing initiating proceedings under code section 2-8-5 (E) Additional Information Following the June 8 meeting and testimony supplied by the owner of the property questioning the role Larry Perkins had in the design of the project, City Staff has received a scanned document prepared by Larry Perkins wife in the late 1950s which lists all projects designed in Evanston either by Larry Perkins or by Phillip Will. This list includes the property at 2715 Hurd Avenue. Additionally, leadership at Perkins and Will in Chicago verifies that although it is common practice for any architectural firm to have multiple hands touch a project from conception through construction, Larry Perkins would have been the Partner-In-Charge for the project and in that role he would have had final say on all aspects of the design. This corroborates the evidence previously provided by the author of the nomination which indicates that Larry Perkins was the lead designer (attached). At the Commissions direction, City Staff attempted to retrieve copies of the documentation the property owner alleged to have in their possession -- documentation they seemed willing to provide during the hearing. Unfortunately the owner of the property has refused to supply this information. (attached) Opposition Letter The property owner has retained legal counsel to represent them at the July 13 meeting and have included a formal objection to the nomination. (attached) The objection contains four central points. 1. Disputing criterion 4, indicating there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that Larry Perkins designed the subject property. a. Staff believes the Commissions report adequately addresses why this criterion has been met. 2. Disputing criterion 3, indicating that the structure is common, vernacular, and without historic significance. a. Staff believes the Commissions report adequately addresses why this criterion has been met. 3. Disputing the ability for the property to be adaptively re-purposed and making claims of economic hardship which will ultimately lead to a proposal for demolition. a. Staff believes the Commission’s report adequately addresses the general potential for adaptive use and has been revised to address the confusion expressed by the owner and their representative. The report further acknowledges the codified process within the Preservation Ordinance affording the owner due process if Landmarked. The Preservation Ordinance allows the property owner to propose demolition and claim economic hardship while providing the Commission and City Council with actual evidence to support those claims. Consideration of economic hardship for the designation is outside of the Commissions purview. 4. Generally questioning that the Design and Project Review Committee (DAPR) did not object to the demolition of the structure during review of the proposed Planned Development for the site and made no reference to the structure being eligible as a Landmark or worthy of preservation. a. The Preservation Commissions findings for nominations for Landmark Designation shall be limited to the criteria for designation, and not the deliberations of other Boards, Committees, and Commissions, including DAPR, which does not provide recommendation to the Commission. The objection is a misunderstanding of the role of DAPR and the multiple roles Planning Staff is charged with undertaking. The body’s (DAPR’s) statement of purpose and single objective under code section 4-14-1 is “…a procedure for the review of proposed developments or redevelopments to ensure they are compatible with adjacent development by taking into account the relationship of the new development to its surroundings with review and discussion by members of City staff and community members from various disciplines.” DAPR is not charged with considering whether demolition of a structure is appropriate, nor is it charged with determining what structures meet the criteria for designation as Landmarks or if properties are worthy of being preserved, or providing any recommendation on proposed nominations -- it is tasked with reviewing the proposed new development on its own merits as it relates to its surroundings. The only specific reference to DAPR and preservation relates to already designated historic architectural resources such as existing Landmarks or properties within an established Historic District. DAPR, and City Staff cannot nominate a structure for Landmark designation as specified in code section 2-8-5, those proceedings were only initiated, and staffs expertise and professional opinions on preservation of the structure only afforded once those proceedings were initiated and forwarded to the appropriate public body charged with the aforementioned responsibilities related to identification and registration of historic resources -- the Preservation Commission. Public Comment Staff has received multiple comments in support of the project including from Landmarks Illinois, former Chair of the Commission Diane Williams, Perkins and Wills Chicago Office, and the Nominator, Andy Nebel.

    Houses of Lake Road Walking Tour Lake Forest, IL About Lake Road 1881 map • Lake Road is one of the very few straight roads in the park-like, curvilinear Plan of Lake Forest by landscape designer Almerin Hotchkiss (1857), running north-south across the deep ravines alongside the steep Lake Michigan bluff edge. The bluffs here rise 50’ to 100’ above the lake. • Due to the riparian nature of the landscape, many homes along Lake Road are located much closer to the street’s edge than elsewhere in east Lake Forest. • Most of the earliest homes and estates in town were built further inland, closer to the railroad station or Lake Forest University. The now- demolished Amzi Benedict residence (see 810 Lake Road) was an exception. • It was during the country estate era of the 1890s and early 1900s that home sites began to populate Lake Road, both the result of new development from Chicagoans building summer places and the subdivision of larger parcels by second-generation Lake Foresters. Few of the homes from this period are extant (see Ioka, Briar Hall, House in the Woods) – Halcyon Lodge (1350 Lake Road) is an exception. • Most homes on this tour come from one of three periods: pre-WWI 1910s (Shaw, Adler); mid-1920s-1930s (Adler, Frazier, Lindeberg, Anderson); or 1950s-1960s (Frazier, Colburn, Cerny, Milman). The Tour Start at the south end of Lake Road (south of Spring Lane) and walk north toward Lake Forest Cemetery Notes: • Some listed homes have been demolished; others may not be visible due to vegetation or fences/walls.

Michigan Ave. (1928; Holabird & Roche/Holabird & Root) The 333 NORTH MICHIGAN BUILDING is one of the city's most outstanding Art Deco-style skyscrapers. It is one of four buildings surrounding the Michigan A venue Bridge that defines one of the city' s-and nation' s-finest urban spaces. The building's base is sheathed in polished granite, in shades of black and purple. Its upper stories, which are set back in dramatic fashion to correspond to the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, are clad in buff-colored limestone and dark terra cotta. The building's prominence is heightened by its unique site. Due to the jog of Michigan Avenue at the bridge, the building is visible the length of North Michigan Avenue, appearing to be located in the center of the street. ABOVE: The 333 North Michigan Building was one of the first skyscrapers to take advantage of the city's 1923 zoning ordinance, which encouraged the construction of buildings with setback towers. This photograph was taken from the cupola of the London Guarantee Building. COVER: A 1933 illustration, looking south on Michigan Avenue.

  • Reactions to Flattery As a Function of Self- Esteem
    Br. I. soc. din. Psychol. (1978), 17, 25-29 Printed in Great Britain 25 Reactions to flattery as a function of self-esteem: Self-enhancement and cognitive consistency theories Andrew M. Colman and Kevin R. Olver Male subjects who had previously scored either very high or very low on a self-esteem scale were interviewed about personal characteristics, biographical details, social activities, etc. They then received, via closed-circuit television, flattering or neutral character assessments which were apparently based on their performance in the interviews. A highly significant interaction (P< 0.(01) showed that whereas the subjects of high self-esteem responded with far greater liking for the evaluator in the flattery than in the neutral condition, those of low self-esteem somewhat preferred the neutral evaluator. These findings provide clear-cut support for the cognitive consistency theory regarding reactions to flattery, but do not rule out a concomitant though weaker self-enhancement effect. One of the most well-established techniques of ingratiation encountered in everyday social interaction is flattery, or what Edward Jones (1964), in his influential monograph, calls 'complimentary other-enhancement'. An admonition given great prominence in Dale Carnegie's best-selling manual, How to Win Friends and Influence People (Carnegie, 1936), is to 'dole out praise lavishly', and there is now a considerable body of empirical evidence indicating that people do indeed typically increase their liking for someone who expresses approval of them (e.g. Backman & Secord, 1959; Jones, Gergen & Davis, 1962). From a common-sense point of view these findings are not surprising, although as Jones has pointed out, one might expect excessive flattery to backfire in certain circumstances.

  • Insincere Flattery Actually Works: a Dual Attitudes Perspective
    ELAINE CHAN and JAIDEEP SENGUPTA This research uses a dual attitudes perspective to offer new insights into flattery and its consequences. The authors show that even when flat- tery by marketingagentsis accompanied by an obvious ulterior motive that leads targets to discount the proffered compliments, the initial favor- able reaction (the implicit attitude) continues to coexist with the dis- counted evaluation (the explicit attitude). Furthermore, the implicit attitude has more influential consequences than the explicit attitude, highlighting the possible subtle impact of flattery even when a person has consciously corrected for it. The authors also clarify the underlyingprocess by show- inghow and why the discrepancy between the implicit and explicit atti- tudes induced by flattery may be reduced. Collectively, the findings from this investigation provide implications for both flattery research and the dual attitudes literature. Keywords: flattery, implicit attitudes, dual attitudes, persuasion, long-term consequences Insincere Flattery Actually Works: A Dual Attitudes Perspective Flattery—the art of offering pleasing compliments—is In cases such as these, in which the prospective con- one of the oldest and most commonly used of persuasion sumer is aware of a clear ulterior motive underlying the methods.
