Title: George Fabyan Villa Windmill Circa 1907 (1907 - S.129). Published by TC Co. Chicago.

Description: View of the Windmill at York Center before Fabyan purchased, moved and restored it in 1907, Colonel George Fabyan commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to remodel an existing house, Fabyan Villa, in Geneva, Illinois. The remodel left little trace of the existing home. The villa encompassed approximately 300 acres. The windmill was built in the 1850s and was located in York Center, now part of Lombard Illinois. Over the years, neglect left it in disrepair. Fabyan purchased it in 1914 and moved it to his estate and fully refurbished it. The authentic Dutch windmill stands five stories tall, and was considered one of only a few authentic Dutch windmills in the country. Text of face: "Windmill on Aurora, Elgin & Chicago Railway. 701" Text on divided verso: "This Space for Writing Messages. Post Card. [Place Stamp Here. Domestic One Cent. Foreign Two Cents.] This space for Address only. TC Co. Chicago (logo)." Undivided back, post marked Apr 17 1907. The printing of this card utilizes four inks, but different printing processes. The black plate has a half-tone dot pattern. The cyan (light blue), magenta and yellow use a cellotype or photogravure process.

Size: 3.4 x 5.4.

S#: 0080.42.0619




Note: Copy of a postcard using the same  image that reads: "701. Old Dutch Wind Mill at York Centre, East of Myer's Road Station, Aurora, Elgin & Chicago Railway." Undivided back, postmarked Apr 17 1907.

Title: Colonel George Fabyan Residence, Fabyan Villa, Geneva, Illinois, Circa 1935-45 (1907 - S.129).

Description: Perspective view of the Fabyan Villa from the Northeast. Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1907. Like the Hills (1900, 1906 - S.051) and Beachy Residence Remodeling (1906 - S.117), Frank Lloyd Wright made dramatic changes. The Fabyan farmhouse was originally L-shaped, the area which is now the Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen. Wright transformed the house by creating a cruciform design, adding a bedroom on the South end, a Veranda on the North and South sides, a covered porch, veranda and two bay windows on the East side. Text bottom left: "67401." Photographed by Gilman Lane. Courtesy of the Art Institute of Chicago. See additional details...

Title: George Fabyan, The Tycoon Who Broke Ciphers, Ended Wars, Manipulated Sound, Built a Levitation Machine, and Organized the Modern Research Center. (Soft Cover) (Published by CreateSpace Independent Publishing, North Charleston, South Carolina)

Author: Munson, Richard

Description: Back cover: "George Fabyan, The Tycoon Who Broke Ciphers, "The rich are different, but George Fabyan was unique among millionaires. This Gilded Age tycoon sponsored and inspired a "community of thinkers" who changed how we wage wars and keep secrets, how we transmit sound and design buildings, and how we stimulate scientific advances. Fabyan created perhaps the first independent research center, laid the foundation for the top-secret National Security Agency, and even helped end World War I by breaking German codes, capturing foreign terrorists, and developing more effective trench mortars..." Page 54: "...Fabian initially purchased a rather simple farmhouse, but in 1907 hired Frank Lloyd Wright to add features that would complement the surrounding Prairie. Two of Fabyan’s neighbors -- the Gridley's of Batavia and the Hoyts of Geneva --had previously employed Wright, and the colonel appreciated the architects confidence and flair, as well as his interest in Japanese art and culture..."

GEORGE FABYAN VILLA - INTERIOR 2018
   

Colonel George Fabyan Residence Interior, Fabyan Villa, Geneva, Illinois (1907 - S.129). Set of 56 photographs of the interior of the Fabyan Villa. Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1907. Photographed on October 5, 2018 during a visit to the Chicago area. "...Fabian initially purchased a rather simple farmhouse, but in 1907 hired Frank Lloyd Wright to add features that would complement the surrounding Prairie. Two of Fabyan’s neighbors -- the Gridley's of Batavia and the Hoyts of Geneva --had previously employed Wright, and the colonel appreciated the architects confidence and flair, as well as his interest in Japanese art and culture..." (Page 54.) George Fabyan, The Tycoon Who Broke Ciphers.
       Like the Hills (1900, 1906 - S.051) and Beachy Residence Remodeling (1906 - S.117), Frank Lloyd Wright made dramatic changes. The Fabyan farmhouse was originally L-shaped, the area which is now the Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen. Wright transformed the house by creating a cruciform design, adding a bedroom on the South end, a Veranda on the North and South sides, a covered porch, veranda and two bay windows on the East side.
       From the front door, visitors step into the Entryway with a built-in bench. To the left, straight ahead is the Dining Room. To the left is the Living Room, and to the right is a hall that

 

leads to the kitchen and a bedroom, and a stairway that leads to the upper level. Oak trim is used throughout the lower level. Exposed wood beams cover the Living Room ceiling. There are four fireplaces, in the Living Room and Bedroom on the lower level, and in the two end bedrooms on the upper level. Each of the rooms with a fireplace also have a bay window with built-in seating on the East elevation. There is an additional built-in seat in the Northwest corner of the Living Room.
       In the Dining Room there is a partition that divides the Dining area from the hall. Spindles are utilized for the upper portion of the partition. Spindles are repeated in a "window" between the hall and stairway. Behind the stairway is the kitchen, and at the end of the hall is a bedroom. On the opposite side of the Dining Room, the outer wall has windows and a set of doors on either end that lead to a covered porch, which is now enclosed. The enclosed porch leads to a large veranda.
       Our intent is to record the details that create the totality of the design, creating a complete picture. Photographed during a trip to Chicago, by Douglas M. Steiner on October 5, 2018. In an effort to expedite adding these photographs to this website, we have dispensed with a description for each photograph. Set of 56 high res 20 X 13.5 digital images.
