Hi John, Have you tried the Cook County Assessors site? http://www.cookcountyassessor.com/Property_Search/Property_Search.aspx When I went back to Park Ridge some six years ago after being away for many decades, I found that one of my two childhood homes had been "pulled down" and replaced by what they call a faux Frank Lloyd Wright house that took up the whole lot. The neighbors must hate it. Anyway, when I searched for the house at the above site I found a photo of our original 1940s place. They perhaps hadn't had time to update the photo even though the new replacement house had been there for at least one year.
