Random Notes - A Blog
3 January 2009
It has surprised me that there have been so few contributions from people living in Oak Park, River Forest, and other Prairie-rich Chicago suburbs. According to the PST’s web statistics, visitors from Illinois represented 14% of total site traffic in 2008, and visitors from Oak Park specifically were the second largest segment in Illinois after those from Chicago. It’s certainly not my intention to shame anyone into sending something about their house or neighborhood—far from it. But it is curious that folks from the remotest outposts of the Prairie School, in places like Utah and Florida, have sent extensive collections of photographs and historical data, while little has come from the home of American progressive architecture. Soon to be added: notes from all over, courtesy of Richard Kenyon.
