Home of Robert Abbott at 4742 South Park (now King Drive) from 1920 until his death in 1940.
Abbott was the founder of the Chicago Defender and one of the most influential newsmen in America.
Built in 1900, the building was given landmark status by the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 (I think.)  It still stands.
