1888 Architectural Masterpiece Saved - Twice

 Next door east to the William Wallace "castle" is the William Chick Scarritt House. Finished in 1888 it was designed by Burnham and Root. William lived there with his wife, Frances Virginia Davis Scarritt and their 5 children. It served as a nursing home from 1940 until the early 2000s. Now in private hands it was lovingly restored and then, in 2016, almost destroyed by fire. The home at 3240 Norledge was then again renovated and stands today . William was an attorney and the son of Nathan Scarritt, pastor and wealthy land owner .
