Charles D. Iglehart House

The rear portion of the Iglehart House was built in 1857 for Charles D. Iglehart, whose farmstead once covered the land between 111th, 115th, Rockwell, and Western in what became Chicago's Morgan Park neighborhood. It's one of the city's oldest surviving buildings — Iglehart's daughter Mary, born in the house that year, was the first recorded birth in the future village of Morgan Park. Iglehart was also a founder of Chicago's Church of the Mediator, whose first building went up in 1889 at 110th and Hoyne Avenue on land donated by the Blue Island Land and Building Company.
