Edward R. Hills House

The Edward R. Hills House in the Frank Lloyd Wright-Prairie School of Architecture Historic District in Oak Park (1883, remodel 1906, reconstruction 1977). It was originally designed in 1883 in the Stick style by Charles C. Miller. In 1900, the house was sold to attorney Nathan G. Moore, who decided to remodel the house as a wedding gift to his eldest daughter. Moore had previously worked with Wright on his own house, also in this district. Barry Byrne oversaw the construction. The house burned in during a 1976 restoration. It was rebuilt with respect to Wright's original design, albeit with some modern features.
