S.024 – William H. Winslow
Residence, 515 Auvergne Place, River Forest, Illinois S.025 – Stable The Winslow residence is historic
because of the transition it represents.
This was the first major commission after Wright left Louis Sullivan’s
firm. The style shows Sullivan’s
attention to decorative detail, but it also introduces the world to Wright’s
sense of geometry and trim. An accompanying
stable (S.025), visible only through the ornamental gateway, began to show
Wright’s Prairie sensibilities on a fuller scale. Winslow co-owned the ironworks that
produced elaborate trim for the Rookery Building (S.113) and Louis Sullivan's Carson, Pirie, Scott
Building. His house is down the
street from the Edward C. Waller Gates (S.065) on what was once Waller’s
property. Photographed on August 3, 2014 &
