Please join the Northwest Chicago Historical Society as we help celebrate Sears’ 75th anniversary at 6 corners with a presentation of Sears Homes of Chicagoland. From 1908 to 1940, about seventy thousand homeowners purchased their homes from the pages of the Sears Roebuck catalog. Some of these homes are still being used and are in the Chicago area. Come hear kit home expert, Lara Solonickne’s PowerPoint Presentation on these Sears Homes.



These homes are undiscovered treasures that are hidden in plain sight. Kit homes are a true reflection of the practical, do-it-yourself American spirit, and they embody the architectural trends of the early 20th century. - Lara Solonickne
