Historic Berwyn's Bungalow Tour

The Berwyn Historical Society announces the 5th annual Historic Berwyn's Bungalow Tour, "Bungalows and More," to be held on Sunday, September 25, 2011, from 12 noon until 5 pm.

Berwyn, a hidden gem of a town, is located just 9 miles southwest of Chicago's Loop and boasts one of the largest concentrations of Chicago-style bungalow homes in the U.S.

Tour-goers will learn the history of each home (interior and exterior) on the tour, while gaining valuable ideas and insight for restoring and maintaining their own vintage homes.

The 2011 tour's homes are located along "The Old Plank Road - Route 66".
Participants may walk, bike and/or drive between houses that are stops on the tour.

The 2011 tour highlights will include an Art Moderne, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as a range of bungalow styles.

All proceeds benefit the Berwyn Historical Society, NFP.

Note: Registration is at the Berwyn Route 66 Museum by Home Ave and Ogden Ave, at 7003 West Ogden Avenue, Berwyn IL 60402.
