William and Jessie M. Adams House
9326 South Pleasant Avenue
Chicago, Illinois 60620

Frank Lloyd Wright, 1900

One of Wright’s “proto-Prairie” residences, an interesting Foursquare that presages the “Fireproof House for $5,000”. A brick first floor gives way to stucco above. Details uncharacteristic of Wright include double-hung windows and a full attic.
