Sheridan Road meets the potential of Historical Landmark status.<br /><br />Below are the criterion that are applicable to 7331 N. Sheridan Road:<br /><br />Criteria 2. Significant Historic Event- According to the encyclopedic 1924 book by H.L. Meites, History of the Jews of Chicago, Temple Mizpah was actually organized in 1919 in Mr. Holsman’s home at 7331 N. Sheridan! The synagogue building on Morse was constructed in 1924 to accommodate the congregation of 350 families. <br /><br />Mr. Holsman was also a director of the Marks Nathan Jewish Home for Orphans. The Marks Nathan Home opened in the Lawndale neighborhood in 1912 during the height of the immigration boom in America. <br /><br />At the beginning of the twentieth century in Chicago, many poor West Side Jewish immigrants fell on hard times, or even perished, and an orphanage was needed.<br /><br />Criteria 3. Significant Person- Mr. Holsman was also a director of the Marks Nathan Jewish Home for Orphans. <br /><br />The Marks Nathan Home opened in the Lawndale neighborhood in 1912 during the height of the immigration boom in America. At the beginning of the twentieth century in Chicago, many poor West Side Jewish immigrants fell on hard times, or even perished, and an orphanage was needed.<br /><br />Also according to Meites’ 1924 tome, a well-known lawyer by the name of Nicolas Pritzker was one of the founders and a longtime advocate for the Marks Nathan Home.<br /><br />Criteria 6. Distinctive Theme- 7331 N. Sheridan Road is one of the few remaining mansions along Sheridan Road following a bungalow style. <br /><br />The Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce is pushing a petition to show to the 49th Ward Alderman and the Program Committee that a large part of the community is in favor of the preservation.Bill Mortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958945888866140487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-12156977014946172072013-06-03T03:08:52.963-05:002013-06-03T03:08:52.963-05:00What is this crap?

Why are you wasting CoC time and money on a Foursquare tear down? Is this Tinker's new mission in life? The building isn't, never was and ain't a "mansion". It's a piece of junk.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00394483640361005561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-72415664551104650082012-08-08T09:53:38.890-05:002012-08-08T09:53:38.890-05:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.West Ridge Chamberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02946729473103013162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-45546074347082494762012-06-06T19:04:37.893-05:002012-06-06T19:04:37.893-05:00This comment has been hidden from the blog.BillsDigitalPhotoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12196092591366735916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-78485312753889207132012-05-26T17:40:18.920-05:002012-05-26T17:40:18.920-05:00Great photos!

I ...Rogers Park needs this kind of thing all over! I often take time to pick up take-out menus, plastic bags, flyers, etc. strewn around the courtyard of the building I live in. I wish there were a way to stop restaurants especially from leaving piles of menus on doorsteps that just blow around to meet their destiny as LITTER. It's a big problem and my building management claims that there's no way to stop restaurants from doing this (nor does the building maintenance staff clean up the mess).<br /><br />I think this is a great idea. It has to be done and I should hope that neighbors who see trash pick it up if they can. It only takes a minute and it would make a big difference if we took that small step to address the problem, even if we aren't able to donate time to an organized group effort with the Chamber.presstoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105156900340055615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-77886572274576583752009-09-21T10:30:15.361-05:002009-09-21T10:30:15.361-05:00hello... hapi blogging... have a nice day! just vi...hello... hapi blogging... have a nice day! just visiting here....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258398557050355601.post-80492326070896021962009-02-25T09:01:00.000-06:002009-02-25T09:01:00.000-06:00Hi,Clicked on your post while searching something ...Hi,<BR/><BR/>Clicked on your post while searching something on net. <BR/><BR/>I like reading your article and at first I was marvelled to see such a blog.
