In 2006, the residents of Chicago's North Lawndale community joined forces with the city's Department of Housing and Neighborhood Housing Services (NHS) of Chicago in a grassroots campaign to preserve the historic greystones of North Lawndale and to plan, support, and guide the neighborhood's future growth and vitality. The organization they formed, the Historic Chicago Greystone Initiative, seeks to raise awareness of this historic residential building type. The first of a two-volume guide to these remarkable Chicago homes, "The Chicago Greystone in Historic North Lawndale" presents the history of the greystone as a type of residential building, provides a history of the neighborhood and the initiative, and reflects on the unique character of North Lawndale. Accompanied by captivating photographs of the greystones and profiles of local residents, "The Chicago Greystone in Historic North Lawndale" offers comprehensive information on greystone structures and geography, as well as information on North Lawndale's urban development and cultural heritage. A must for anyone interested in this exciting facet of Chicago architecture, or how one Chicago neighborhood reclaimed its pride of place, this volume is a fascinating introduction to the Chicago greystone and one of its most notable communities.
