Issue 620
This time we hear from John Styler of Prospect Heights, IL about Robert McCormick’s manse, Cantigny.
Tony is correct, it would be Steuben. The original home was that of Col. Robert E. McCormick founder of the Chicago Tribune. He named the place after the World War 1 Battle of Cantigny. His offices in Chicago at the Tribune Tower were also laden with deco Steuben.
