An Evanston Mansion with Bygone Gravitas
Years ago, when well-heeled parents regularly gifted their children magnificent houses, Evanston resident Francis Alonzo Hardy built his son Edward, a businessman and alderman, a swoon-worthy English manor by architect Ernest Mayo. The British-born Mayo had come to Chicago as an adviser for the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition and went on to design dozens of houses in Evanston.
