General Notes

Note

Notes: American School of Correspondence Address: 850 E. 58th St. American School of Correspondence (Source: Chicago Landmarks website) Year Built: 1906-07 Architect: Pond & Pond Date Designated a Chicago Landmark: April 15, 1995 Built as the headquarters of a large education-by-mail school, this building is remarkably original in design, while reflecting the dignity of traditional academic architecture. In composition and detailing, it is a masterpiece of early-20th century Arts & Crafts-style design. The architects, brothers Irving and Allen Pond, were known for their buildings' exceptional brickwork, asymmetrical massing, and distinctive decorative detail. Among Pond & Pond's other designs are the Northwestern University Settlement House and the Dining Hall at Jane Addams' Hull House--both Chicago Landmarks. SC/Lowcountry Digital Library.
