S.177 – Walter Gerts Residence Remodeling,

7214 Quick Avenue, River Forest, Illinois

 

Photographed on May 17, 2012.  This house is a bit difficult to locate, even though the street is not hard to find.  Many residences on Quick Street do not display visible address numbers.  Since there are so many Prairie-style homes in the area, it is difficult to judge a Wright design solely by appearance.   This stucco home is the third house off Harlem.

 

Wright’s involvement was mainly limited to interior efforts – relocating stairways and walls.

 

Walter Gerts also engaged Wright to design his Michigan cottage (S.078).
