Third Lake Ridge Historic District: A Walking Tour. 1987: "The Lougee house was designed by Claude and Starck . With its broad, slate-shingled roof, horizontal massing, belt-courses and sweeping terrace, it is an excellent example of Prairie School architecture. It is similar in appearance to Frank Lloyd Wright's Harley Bradley House in Kankakee, Illinois, built in 1900. Lougee (1850-1932) was a native of Exeter, new Hampshire. He operated a number of hotels and clubs, including the Park Hotel and University Club in Madison, and the Palmer House in Chicago." |
