High Style Queen Anne House, 1315 McKinley Avenue featuring an irregular roof form and slightly off-center two-story tower with conical roof on the front elevation. The single-story porch has an off-center entry accented with a shallow pediment. Eastlake details like spindles, a turned balustrade, and turned posts adorn the porch, which extends across the full front elevation and wraps around one corner. The house at 1315 McKinley Avenue also displays a wraparound porch, spindle detailing, steep roof, fish scale wall shingles, and cut-away bay on the front elevation. An umbrage porch on the second floor and multi-level gables on the primary façade add to the asymmetrical character of the house. More typical examples of Queen Anne houses in the district display a variety of these stylistic features. Examples of more common Queen Anne residences in Bay City include 1214 Fifth Street, 600 North Monroe Street, and 1516 Sixth Street (Figures 6.2-9, 6.2-10, and 6.2-11). In general, these buildings have irregular footprints and roof forms. Hipped roofs with cross-gabled bays are common, as are hip-on-gable or jerkinhead details. Porch styles vary but typically extend across the full or partial length of the front elevation and wrap around the building corner.

  • Oak Park & River Forest History
    Oak Park Tours - Oak Park & River Forest History Early History The earliest settlements in America were along waterways that provided natural routes for travel. The Oak Park-River Forest area was part of the settlement phase that followed. The inducements were high ground (it was the first ridge at the edge of the swamp around Fort Dearborn), groves of hardwood trees, and a location on an old Indian trail from east to west. We now call that trail Lake Street. In 1831, two Chicago men erected a steam sawmill on the Aux Plaines (now the Des Plaines) River near Lake Street so the hardwood they cut could be moved easily to Chicago’s construction sites. This mill was said to be the only one within 20 miles of the city. Joseph Kettlestrings, a Yorkshireman, traveled here in 1833 from England via Cincinnati, Ohio, with his wife and three small children. He purchased 160 acres bounded on the south by what is now the site of the CNW Railroad and the streets we now know as Harlem, Chicago and Oak Park Avenues. He worked at the sawmill, and in 1835 he built himself a home (some say an inn) near what’s now Pier One on Lake Street in downtown Oak Park. This was the first permanent house in what is now Oak Park. (The village was then called Kettlestrings’ Grove and later Oak Ridge.) To secure a better education for his children, Kettlestrings moved to Chicago in 1843. This was before the Old Red Schoolhouse, a simple frame building, was built at Lake Street and Lathrop Avenue in River Forest in 1851.
