Address: 3234 W. Washington Blvd. Year Built: 1901 Architect: George W. Maher Date Designated a Chicago Landmark: February 10, 1988

Designed by one of the most inventive early 20th-century architects, this house is an amalgamation of the Sullivanesque, Colonial Revival, and Prairie styles. It was originally commissioned by wealthy businessman Patrick J. King, but its most well-known occupant was the influential Irish-Catholic politician Patrick A. Nash, who lived here from 1925 to 1943, when Washington Boulevard was one of the city's most-fashionable addresses.
