Mr. and Mrs. Milton Hirsch residence, built in 1961
Join us for an afternoon reception in an iconic work of
Mid-Century Modernism.
The Hirsch house features a curving plan, based on a segment of
a circle. A finely detailed custom home, it includes numerous
built-ins, skylights, and of
course the trademark Keck window vents. Curving hallways connect
zones of activity.
Built on a steep wooded bluff that drops to Lake Michigan, the
house complements
the spectacular site and takes advantage of the northeastern
view toward the lake.
The Hirsches admired the Hopf House in Kenilworth, and requested
some of the same features,
including the purple/black brick and the alumnum porte cochere
that connects the drive-through garage to the house.
