Longwood Drive District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Longwood Drive District is a historic district in Chicago, Illinois, USA. The houses along Longwood Drive in the Beverly neighborhood were built beginning in 1873 by various architects. Longwood was named for a long copse of trees that ran along the lee side of the hill where the rest of Beverly is located. The area was designated a Chicago Landmark on November 13, 1981.[1]
