Glasner House, Glencoe                                                                           RETURN

 

 

The sale of this Frank Lloyd Wright-designed residence to a preservation-minded owner was  completed in June. There were fears that the 1905 building, which had been listed for sale by its current owner, would be purchased and demolished by someone more interested in redeveloping the wooded corner lot. The residence had been listed on LPCI’s “Ten Most Endangered Historic Places” list for 1997. This is the second time in recent years the Glasner house has been saved.
