History edit

The house at 1514 N. Michigan Street was constructed in c. 1880, in a location that was at the time a fashionable area. The house was later turned into a medical laboratory.[2] By 2018, the house was vacant and was subsequently demolished. A new-build commercial structure was constructed on the site of the house and a neighboring home to the north in 2019.
