I helped book funerals and hosted many a funeral. It was called Rowland Home For Funerals. I attended church across the street at Saint Mary of the Lake Catholic Church.<br /><br />Let’s not forget the Cubs Ball Park is just blocks away!<br /><br />Bob and Mary Rowland took excellent care of the huge house. The flocked wallpaper (very popular at the time) was updated or cleaned yearly. The carpets were cleaned or updated often. Every room had crown molding, made of solid mahogany. <br /><br />The caskets we’re transported by a dumb waiter from the first floor to the ‘casket viewing’ room located on the third floor. From my apartment, I could enter the casket room.<br /><br />Bev T.VitaminBaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15936567251975741423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700192481160437156.post-36211296797401047772010-10-25T15:35:50.701-05:002010-10-25T15:35:50.701-05:00Many thanks kkcny!

If it's not too late, I would be interetsed to see Jeff's photos of the demolition of the house and suggestions from anyone of where I could find more photos. Perhaps Dan has more info?

McNeill Whistler, and Whislter's portrait of Eddy hangs at the Union League Club. Eddy was responsible for bringing much modern art enthusiasm to Chicago via the 1913 Armory Show of modern art and owned much himself - much left to the Art Institute in the Arthur J. Eddy Memorial Collection (works by Albert Bloch, Kandinsky, Arthur Dove, etc.) When he died in 1920, just as Prohibition had begun, a large and valuable collection of fine cognac and wines (Madeira from 1840, Chateau Lafite from 1878, etc.) was found in his basement cellars at this home of Sheridan. <br /><br />Eddy was the first person in Chicago (Illinois ?) to receive a driver's license in 1900. He set a distance record for driving 2900 miles across the US & Canada in 1900 as well.<br /><br />In Feb, 1999, Martin Tangora of Landmarks Preservation Council of Illinois tried to save this historic house, but sadly failed. I blame Helen Shiller for the loss of this and many other buildings in our area with her public statements that "just because it's old doesn't mean it should be preserved" and her other uneducated attitudes and cultural barbarism.dan laymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16065634188369170378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700192481160437156.post-67934142869433856632009-08-05T20:26:10.471-05:002009-08-05T20:26:10.471-05:00I'm not really sure, but I think ROWLANDS was ...I'm not really sure, but I think ROWLANDS was used in the beginning of the BLUES BROTHERS, check and see for yourelfclarendon parkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10332729697565548525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700192481160437156.post-37720771588420035772009-08-01T17:04:52.179-05:002009-08-01T17:04:52.179-05:00I just watched the movie Flatliners, which was fil...I just watched the movie Flatliners, which was filmed in Chicago.
