Pleasant Home is considered one of the earliest and most distinguished examples of Prairie School Architecture in the nation and is operated by the Pleasant Home Foundation as a living museum, which is open to the public and offers a year-round schedule of educational programs, community events and festivals and cultural performances. The house was designed in 1897 by noted architect George W. Maher for investment banker and philanthropist John W. Farson and his wife Mamie Ashworth Farson. The design of Pleasant Home broke with the traditional Queen Anne and colonial revival styles of most of the homes in Oak Park.
WGN will tour Pleasant Home on Tuesday, March 9th from 7:00 AM - 10:00 AM as it broadcasts live from Pleasant Home the “Around Town” segment of the morning news.
