House in Old Town (Chicago)
-
That poor house. It’s going to cost a fortune to restore it.

@steve-miller and @mik This house doesn't look like it needs renovation to me.
Well, of course, in an alternate universe, if I wanted to buy it, I'd have to hire a home inspector (as well as an attorney).
Then I'd know. I don't know.
I think it's beautiful and I've always wanted an elevator.
An elevator building, here (ones with 3 stories or more have them) would be great.
I even had a dream once that I discovered an elevator in the pantry of my grandparents' house in Tampa.
It went down one floor to a basement (yes, it was nonsense).
I asked my grandmother why she never told me about it. She said I didn't need to know.
What would Jung have said? /r

Thank you wtg, yes.
Like it a lot, could move in, but immediately remove most of the central lampshades.
And those three orbs above the kitchen island 🤪 (very Dr Who or Mysterons or something like that). -

@andyd You might know that Chicago is the most important city in the history of American architecture. It towers (sic) above New York. I don't know if you've been there or seen pictures but it's a beautiful city. The downtown area is especially awesome. We have nothing else that compares to it.

@andyd We only equaled you during the Gilded Age. We were only able to do it for two reasons. We had your (and other) history to simulate, and our industrialists had the wealth to travel Europe and buy everything related to furnishing a house, including architectural details, furniture, and art, at bargain prices.

A bit formal for my taste but very nice!

Far more reasonably priced and simply lovely is this home, only a short drive south from us
