Edward R. Hills Residence - Oak Park, Illinois

313 Forest Avenue - In 1906 Frank Lloyd Wright remodeled this home to something resembling its current state.  Since then it has been remodeled, mostly destroyed by fire, restored, remodeled and restored.  I don't think I've ever read about a house that's gone back and forth so much between owners wanting to change it and ones wanting to restore it to its 1906 incarnation.
