Address: 4122 S. Ellis Ave. Year Built: 1886 Architect: Adler & Sullivan Date Designated a Chicago Landmark: October 2, 1991

One of the few surviving examples of the small residential projects that made up the early work of Dankmar Adler and Louis H. Sullivan. The studied simplicity of the facade anticipates the famous firm's later, more well-known contributions to modern architecture, such as the Auditorium Building. This house was built as the residence of Mathilde Eliel, a schoolteacher who was a cousin of Adler's.
