Fox Lake station

Fox Lake is a station on Metra's Milwaukee District North Line in Fox Lake, Illinois. The station is located on Nippersink Boulevard at Grand Avenue, is 49.5 miles (79.7 km) away from Chicago Union Station, the southern terminus of the line, and serves commuters from Fox Lake to Downtown Chicago. The station is the northern terminus of the Milwaukee District North Line. As of 2018, Fox Lake is the 141st busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 322 weekday boardings. As of February 15, 2024, Fox Lake is served by 32 trains (16 in each direction) on weekdays, by 18 trains (nine in each direction) on Saturdays, and by all 18 trains (nine in each direction) on Sundays and holidays. All Metra trains that serve Fox Lake originate and terminate here. Until 1982 commuter trains continued to Walworth, Wisconsin and until the creation of Amtrak in 1971, inter-city trains like the Varsity and the Sioux, both operated by the Milwaukee Road, connected Fox Lake with Janesville, Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, and Rapid City, South Dakota. Station layout Fox Lake consists of a single platform serving in-service Metra trains. Two other tracks exist at the station, but they are only used for locomotives that pull out of the yard to switch onto the mainline. A coach yard used to store trains during off-peak hours and overnight is located just east of the station. The tracks north of Fox Lake are owned by the state of Wisconsin, are operated for freight service by the Wisconsin and Southern Railroad, and see freight traffic only. Also, commuter service beyond the station was abolished in the 1980s. From 2000 to 2001, Amtrak ran the Lake Country Limited over the WSOR trackage. This service did not stop in Fox Lake and was discontinued due to low ridership and bad conditions of the tracks north of Fox Lake.

Fox River Pavilion

The Fox River Pavilion, formerly the St. Charles Hospital, is a historical building in Aurora, Illinois. The Art Deco building was originally a hospital and functioned as a nursing home and sanatorium until approximately April 2010, when the property was vacated. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 7, 2010. History The Franciscan Sisters of the Sacred Heart came to the United States in 1876 following persecution of German Catholics during the Kulturkampf. Shortly afterward, the order moved to Joliet, Illinois, where they founded the St. Joseph Hospital. In February 1900, the rapidly growing order required a new hospital and convent to meet its needs. They purchased land in Aurora, a rapidly growing city nearby. They purchased the Coulter House on North Forth Street and used it as the first St. Charles Hospital. This became the second hospital in Aurora; the first was founded in 1886 by the Aurora City Hospital Association, who operated out of a building on Lincoln Avenue since 1888. The Franciscan order purchased the neighboring James Freeman House the next year, which then became the home of the hospital following a 1902 addition. As Aurora continued to grow, the Sisters needed to expand their space. They built a dormitory for sister in 1910 and a boiler house & laundry in 1920. The order founded a nursing school in 1922 and opened their first branch, a maternity hospital, in 1925. Recognizing the need for a large hospital building, the order began to purchase other houses on the block in the late 1920s. The St. Charles Hospital was built for the Sisters in 1932 for $500,000. It was designed in the Art Deco style by Wybe Jelles Van der Meer, who primarily planned ecclesiastical buildings and did most of his work for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rockford. Construction was led by contractor C. J. DeWit, whose use of local labor during the Great Depression was lauded by the Chicago Daily Tribune. The 110-bed facility replaced the original complex as an acute care facility. Rev. Edward Francis Hoban gave the opening blessing. After years of service, the hospital became a skilled nursing facility and sanatorium as the Fox River Pavilion. Following the stabbing death of a patient, the state and federal government revoked the building's license in 2010. On June 7, 2010, the building was recognized by the National Park Service with a listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

Francis J. Dewes House

The Francis J. Dewes House is a house located at 503 West Wrightwood Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, United States. The house was built in 1896 by Adolph Cudell and Arthur Hercz for a brewer Francis J. Dewes. The building's exterior is designed in a Central European Baroque Revival style. The home was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 14, 1973. It was designated as a Chicago Landmark on June 12, 1974. The home of Dewes's brother, August, located next door; was designated a Chicago Landmark in 2005. A pair of Chicago Landmark plaques for each home can be found on a pedestal in front of the Francis J. Dewes house. Past owners and residents include Chuck Renslow and Dom Orejudos, the latter of whom housed his art studio on the third floor. Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley invited Chuck Renslow to a 1974 ceremony celebrating the building's landmark designation. The mansion went for sale in 2011 with an asking price of $9.9 million. It never sold and is currently owned by a property management firm called Structure Management Midwest. In 2013, its owner, Fred Latsko, listed it for $12.5 million. Interior The mansion is three story Baroque style with two caryatids supporting the balcony over the main entrance. There are many figures and ornamental groups carved in the Bedford stone exterior of the building. Ornamental iron, hand-wrought, forms the balconies, window trim, porches, and railings; all in lavish detail of the Baroque style. There is a mansard roof with hand wrought copper fence surround. The exterior of the building is considered to be the Louis XV style that later spread to all the capitals of Europe. The large stained glass window which extends from the main stairway landing of the building up to the second floor is the work of a famous Belgian artist with figures and flowers in a springtime motif. The artist was engaged to design a window to fit the opening and came to Chicago especially to work out the details and returned to Belgium to personally supervise the firing of the glass and making of the window. On the first floor of the elegant interior of this building one immediately notices upon entering the foyer the huge fireplace on the East wall with marble columns facing the magnificent staircase leading to the second floor; immediately ahead is the wishing well equipped with running water and statue. The floors are Italian Mosaic and marble arranged in panels with overlay of gilded ornamental plaster molding gracing the walls. References External links Media related to Francis J.

Frank E. Bauer Bridge

The Frank E. Bauer Bridge is a 0.19 mile (0.31 km) former toll bridge that traverses the Rock River in Machesney Park, Illinois. It was one of four toll bridges in the state of Illinois. The bridge consists of four lanes, a median and shoulders, as well as a sidewalk which was not tolled. It connects Illinois Route 2 north of Rockford, Illinois with commercial areas of Machesney Park and Illinois Route 251 via the Bauer Parkway and Harlem Road (Winnebago County Highway 25). The bridge opened in 1993. As of 2006, the toll for all vehicles was 50 cents per vehicle, payable only in coins or tokens. I-Pass, the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority's electronic toll collection system, was not accepted due to the large upfront costs of installing I-PASS at the bridge. The Bauer Bridge was tolled to pay for bonds issued for its construction, scheduled to be repaid by 2013. Toll collection ceased on April 1, 2013. References
Frank J. Baker House

The Frank J. Baker House is a 4,800-square-foot Prairie School style house located at 507 Lake Avenue in Wilmette, Illinois. The house, which was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, was built in 1909, and features five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and three fireplaces. At this point in his career, Wright was experimenting with two-story construction and the T-shaped floor plan. This building was part of a series of T-shaped floor planned buildings designed by Wright, similar in design to Wright's Isabel Roberts House. This home also perfectly embodies Wright's use of the Prairie Style through the use of strong horizontal orientation, a low hanging roof, and deeply expressed overhangs. The house's two-story living room features a brick fireplace, a sloped ceiling, and leaded glass windows along the north wall; it is one of the few remaining two-story interiors with the T-shaped floor plan designed by Wright. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 8, 1974. A major restoration of the home was begun in 2020 under new ownership. Interior Once through the entryway of the home, the twenty-two foot long dining room featuring diamond leaded-glass windows, pitched ceiling and wooden trim is revealed. Past the dining room on the main floor is a large kitchen complete with a small breakfast nook. The living room bears a dramatic resemblance to a Catholic cathedral that features a ceiling that cantilevers into a loft above. The heavy use of horizontal and vertical windows that stretch around the outside of the room give one the impression of more space. At the heart of the home can be found the main brick fireplace, a common theme within Wright's work, with a balcony above for viewing. The upstairs master bedroom features one of three fireplaces along with a personal enclosed balcony. See also List of Frank Lloyd Wright works References Storrer, William Allin (1993).

Moser Tower and Millennium Carillon

Moser Tower (often referred to as the Naperville Bell Tower) is a structure built in Naperville, Illinois, United States. It was built in 1999 to commemorate the third millennium and 21st century. It is 160 feet (49 m) tall and contains the Millennium Carillon, a carillon of 72 bells. The carillon structure is said to be one of the four largest in the United States. History A former fundraiser called the Millennium Carillon began fundraising and later started construction in 1997. The entire project cost about $7.1 million, which was triple the amount that was collected and proposed. Construction was finished in 1999. However to open in year 2000, they decided not to surround the bottom in glass and not to install an elevator. In 2007, the city of Naperville took over maintenance of the structure and also added unfinished parts, including installing an elevator. The fundraiser became defunct, however the debts and costs to complete the structure were estimated at $5 million. In June 2017, possible structural issues were found. It was found that the structure may become unsafe in the future. Repairs to the structure began in spring of 2021, they are expected to be completed by fall of 2021. Structural issues Structural issues were found in June 2017. Cracks in the concrete were found, and the steel support began corroding. It was at first proposed to last at least 100 years, however it was not expected that the concrete could not hold up well and that the steel support would corrode. After conducting tests and inspection at the cost of $50,000, an estimated $3 million is required to repair the structure, or $660 thousand to demolish it. In April 2018, it remained unknown whether the structure will be demolished or repaired. Costs for repair are high; however many argue that costs to build the structure were higher, and the structure is considered iconic for the city of Naperville. In February 2020, it was decided through a unanimous decision to repair and continue maintaining the tower for $1.5 million. Starting in the spring of 2021, StruxC-MC, LLC began work to fix corroded structural steel, cracked concrete and other issues discovered with the 160-foot-tall Moser Tower. The bid was awarded with a price tag of about $2.1 million. Included in the price tag is also repairs to the nearby river walk. As of 2024, this work is not yet complete. Gallery References
Frank W. Thomas House

The Frank W. Thomas House is a historic house located at 210 Forest Avenue in Oak Park, a suburb of Chicago in Illinois, United States. The building was designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1901 and cast in the Wright-developed Prairie School of Architecture. By Wright's own definition, this was the first of the Prairie houses - the rooms are elevated, and there is no basement. The house also includes many of the features which became associated with the style, such as a low roof with broad overhangs, casement windows, built-in shelves and cabinets, ornate leaded glass windows and central hearths/fireplaces. Tallmadge & Watson, a Chicago firm that became part of the Prairie School of Architects, added an addition to the rear of the house in 1923. On September 14, 1972, the Frank Thomas House was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

Franklin Park station

Franklin Park is one of two stations on Metra's Milwaukee District West Line in Franklin Park, Illinois. The station is 13.2 miles (21.2 km) away from Chicago Union Station, the eastern terminus of the line. In Metra's zone-based fare system, Franklin Park is in zone 2. As of 2018, Franklin Park is the 123rd busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 392 weekday boardings. As of February 15, 2024, Franklin Park is served by 48 trains (23 inbound, 25 outbound) on weekdays, by all 24 trains (12 in each direction) on Saturdays, and by all 18 trains (nine in each direction) on Sundays and holidays. On weekdays, three inbound trains originate here, and three outbound trains terminate here. Franklin Park is a centerpiece of the Milwaukee District West Line. Located adjacent to CPKC's Bensenville Yard, the station sees a large volume of freight traffic, and many trains on the MD-W line run express to and from this station. The two north tracks are used by Metra and the two south tracks are used for freight (CPKC) trains. The annual Railroad Daze festival is held at this station, and is a festival catered to railfans and celebrates the railroad's role in Franklin Park's history. The historic B-12 interlocking tower for the Milwaukee Railroad is situated one block west of the station in a small park, accompanied by a preserved Milwaukee Road caboose. This tower, constructed in the 1890s, was located at the intersection of the MD-W line and the Canadian National (ex-Soo Line/Wisconsin Central) tracks. It closed permanently in July 1996 and was relocated the following year. In late 2004, the state of Illinois, along with CP, CN, and the Indiana Harbor Belt, took part in and executed a major rail relocation plan. This project included the consolidation of the IHB roadbed with the CN's at Richard Avenue in neighboring River Grove, the closedown and demolition of IHB grade crossings at Schiller Boulevard, Chestnut Avenue, Franklin Avenue, Edgington Street, and Grand Avenue, and the demolition and replacement of the CN grade crossing on Grand Avenue with a new green underpass bridge. Following the project, the old IHB right-of-way north of the railroad's Norpaul Yard became Martens Street. The bridge was formally dedicated by the village of Franklin Park in September 2007. Although the Milwaukee system as a whole ceased to exist in 1986, the tower still dons the Milwaukee Road logo. Franklin Park Station is the last station outbound along the Milwaukee District West Line to use three tracks. It is also the closest full service Metra station to O'Hare International Airport.
