Book Synopsis Chicago's Historic Prairie Avenue by : William H. Tyre
Book excerpt: Prairie Avenue evolved into Chicago's most exclusive residential street during the late 19th century, when the city's wealthiest and most influential citizens built lavish homes here. The area began to decline around 1900, but experienced a renaissance in the late 20th century.
