The space This beautiful old house was built in 1911 and originally located within Highland Park, an arboretum located a few blocks away and designed by renowned landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted. In 1982, the house was slated for demolition to make room for a parking lot. It was moved instead, preserving it with all its lovely details. The house has recently undergone an interior restoration with an update to the kitchen and bathrooms.
