Historic Rowhouse in the Calumet/Giles Prairie District: 3220 S. Prairie
In Bronzeville, there are a few blocks that make up the Calumet/Giles Prairie District- otherwise known as “The Gap”. The area barely survived the wrecking ball in the 1950s and 1960s.
It stretches from the 3100 to 3500 blocks of Calumet, Giles and Prairie Avenues and is made up mostly of vintage rowhouses.
3220 S. Prairie, a rowhouse built in 1888, is currently on the market. The listing says it is “lovingly restored.”
It has been on the market since 2006.

The place is really nice and the area is on the rebound. But did they build the cabinets over the windows?
Yep….

i saw it and loved it, but cannot afford it. i wish i could.
oh, and the windows are not covered, they start above the cabinets.
Still on the market, now reduced another 40k. currently listed at 510,000.
From the listing: “The fireplace in the living room with glass French door separating the formal dining room are reminiscent of cultured living”. Cultured living. I love it.
