While driving on I-90 near the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, maybe your eyes have quickly flashed to a fairytale-like structure peeking out from the side of the tollway. Located on the former grounds of the now-closed Wyndham Hotel and behind Hyatt Place at 6810 Mannheim Road, this storybook cottage was not built as a folly or what some people believe as a novelty restaurant. This little building actually predates the town of Rosemont itself.
Thank you for documenting its history and unfortunate destruction!
