ust one block east of Frank Lloyd
Wright's Forest Avenue Home and Studio, Kenilworth Avenue is comprised of a
mixture of impressive Victorian mansions and later homes which show the
influence of Wright's Prairie style in the early 20th century. Elizabeth
Court is a picturesque, one-block long street - the only curved street in Oak
Park. Local legend has it that at one time the village proposed to
straighten it, but quickly relented after vocal protests from the residents.
Walking down Elizabeth Court today is like journeying back a hundred
years in time.
