Located on the shady residential street named for Paul Cornell, who began the development of Hyde Park in 1853, Cornell Terrace displays the material sensuality of the era in which it was built. Creamy sandstone details contrast with the red brick facade, with entries and windows marked by keystones characteristic of early 1920's Chicago architecture. Colorful foliage along the landscaped entry completes the picturesque palette. While a (limited) gated parking lot enhances the convenience of the buildings proximity to major highways, public transportation is also nearby.
