06 Jan 1902 henry l. newhouse-designed southside chicago greystone’s future uncertain after devastating fire
i haven’t had time to do my research on a badly burned bronzeville residence located at 4550 south michigan avenue – just south of the swift mansion (1892) that burned in early december of 2023, but i did get a chance to shoot the distinctive carved bedford limestone facade on new year’s day.
in the case of 4550, the blaze happened in june of 2023, and the damage done was far more severe then swift.
when carefully looking at the two, swift no doubt has a chance of survival, but i’m concerned over the fate of 4550.
