Oak Park has expanded its Frank Lloyd Wright Historic District boundaries, adding 444 homes to an area once declared one of America’s 10 great neighborhoods.
The expansion brings the total number of homes in the district to 1,934. Of those, 1,728 homes – or 89 percent – are considered historically relevant to the area. Some are questioning how the new historic status will affect homeowners.
