Title: Book - The Chicago Bungalow
Post by: djdesi on October 25, 2007, 11:34:42 AM
I understand that the Chicago Architectural Foundation has a book titled The Chicago Bungalow by Dominic A. Pacyga. Is anyone familiar with this book and would it be helpful with Berwyn bungalow history?

It is a very good book, chalk full of pictures and a host of local history. It mainly focuses on the Chicago bungalow and the various neigborhoods though it does mention Berwyn and Cicero. I would say it would be a nice adition to anyone's bungalow collection.

^^ Agreed.  A large percentage of photos in that book are of Berwyn bungalows...

Yeah, it's the most comprehensive of the Chicago STYLE...not necessarily bungalows IN Chicago.
