Date:
Circa 1935
Title:
Waller & Francisco Terrace Apartments Circa 1935-40 (1895 - S.030).
Description:
Viewed from the Southwest, the Francisco Terrace Apartments are
on the left, Waller Apartments (1895 - S.031) on the right. The
Francisco Terrace and Waller Apartments were both designed as
low income housing in 1895. Although the Francisco Terrace
Apartments were designed first, they was constructed after the
Waller Apartments. The Francisco Terrace Apartments were built
adjacent to and behind the Waller Apartments, and connected on
the West side. Many architectural details found in the Waller
Apartments are also evident in the Francisco Terrace Apartments.
It consisted of forty-four units (possibly forty-five). All
apartments faced and were accessed from the inner garden
courtyard except those facing the street. Instead of hallways,
Wright designed each corner of the courtyard with a tower that
enclosed stairs that opened to a wooden gallery which gave
access to the second floor units. After nearly eight decades,
and years of neglect the Francisco Terrace Apartments were
demolished in March, 1974. In 1978, decorative elements were
salvaged, including the Sullivanesque terra-cotta arched
entrance, and reconstructed on a smaller scale in Oak Park,
creating seventeen townhouses. Photographed by
Gilman
Lane. Etched into the negative, bottom left corner

1895 by Frank Lloyd Wright, then a 26-year-old, little known architect. Devereux Bowly Jr.
wrote in his book The Poorhouse that the two along with six other row
houses still standing, are part of Francisco Terrace, ‘the first subsidized
housing in Chicago... Classic in the history of low income housing. I like
to tell people I bought two Frank Lloyd Wright buildings for $1 apiece.’
said Vince Michaels of the landmark Preservation Council, which bought them
under the Chicago Abandoned Property Program and is rehabbing them to sell
to low income families for $70,000 to $80,000 each." Caption on verso:

of the Waller Apartments. Edward C. Waller was an important

William Winslow house. Waller commissioned several projects
to be designed by Wright including the
Francisco Terrace Apartments
(1895 - S.030) (demolished) and the Waller
Apartment (1895 - S.031). The Waller Apartments consisted of
five connected buildings, numbered right to left (East to

end (left). Unit 1: 2840 A&B (right) and 2842 A&B (left),
Unit 2: 2844 and 2846, Unit 3: 2848 and 2850, Unit 4:
2852 and 2854, Unit 5: 2846 and 2858. The of the five
attached apartment buildings each containing four
approximately 600-square-foot units. Original plans
published in Monograph... indicated that each of the 20
units had a dining room, kitchen, bedroom, parlor and a
water closet (toilet). Although some of the units in the
Francisco Terrace Apartments, directly behind these
apartments, had bath tubs, it does not appear that any of
these units had bath tubs. Frank Lloyd Wright’s description
for the
Francisco Terrace Apartments
included "...Water
Closet for Each. Public Baths for Men and for Women..." When
looking at the plans it begs the question, why only a
toilet. Who would live in an apartment without a shower or
bath. "In 1893 just three percent of families living in
Chicago’s ‘slum districts’ were in housing with
bathrooms..." from "Washing ‘the Great Unwashed’ " Marilyn
Thornton Williams. In 1894, Chicago built the first public
bathhouse on the West Side. According to the Encyclopedia of
Chicago, |
|
between
1894 and 1918, "Chicago built 21 small and utilitarian
public bathhouses in poor and immigrant neighborhoods."
Chicago
was one of the first cities to pass an ordinance that
required all apartments to have private bathrooms in each
unit. Wallace and Wright were on the forefront. Not only
were the
Francisco Terrace
and Waller Apartments the first
subsidized housing in Chicago, each unit had a private water
closet. Unit 4 (second from left) was demolished in 1968
after a fire gutted the unit. An article in the Chicago
Sun-Times, October 25,1993 indicated that: "The two
abandoned properties at 2844 (unit 2) and 2848 (Unit 3) W.
Walnut were slated by the city to be torn down and would
have been had a red light not gone off. The row houses in a
small corner of East Garfield Park were designed by 1895 by
FLW, then a 26-year-old, little known architect..." The
design of the Waller and
Francisco Terrace Apartments were
very similar, and design elements used in both. Yellow
brick, visible in the renovated unit 1, layout and design
of the brick, arched and lintel entryways, decorative terra
cotta cornice beading trimming the roof line, window column,
decorative terra cotta panel and lintels above the doorways,
limestone trim. After Waller death, the Waller Apartments
were subdivided and sold as cooperative apartments. This set
of 145 images of the Waller Apartments examines the
architectural detail of the Wright designed Waller
Apartments. Photographed by Douglas M. Steiner October 9,

Apartments. Frank Lloyd Wright, architect. 1895.
Commissioned by prominent real estate developer Edward
Carson Waller to meet the demand for affordable housing,
these apartments are considered among the earliest examples
of subsidized housing in Chicago. The simplified design of
the facade indicates the young architect's departure from
traditional design toward the abstract, modern principles
for which he was later internationally known. Designated on
