"The facades, the detailing, and the stonework are impeccable," was the jury reaction to this lakefront complex of 44 townhouses. Units that face the street each feature a typical Chicago front entry and stair. The other residences are accessed through a gated community garden. This garden court draws inspiration from Chicago courtyard buildings and offers a smaller scaled composition of facade elements. Two-car garages are incorporated into an auto court with greenhouses.
