Three days ago I visited the former Fort Sheridan army base east of Highwood, Illinois. Ninety-four of the buildings, most of them constructed with bricks made from the limestone prevalent on Chicago's North Shore, are part of the historic district in what is now known as the Town of Fort Sheridan.The home pictured here could have only been the post commander's residence. The stately mansion is the grandest house within the old fort, and is just a short walk from Lake Michigan.
