How Do We Get There?

PROMOTE.   ARCHIVE.   ADVOCATE.

THE CONCEPTS

PROMOTE

The "Houses of Flossmoor" is an online, interactive map spotlighting interesting / architecturally significant Flossmoor homes.  Highlighted on the site would be  original blueprints, elevations and stories from willing homeowners to build online interest within the greater Chicagoland area.  This  interactive map could be used to craft a walking tour of our neighborhoods, showcasing our historic homes and downtown.

ARCHIVE

There is no Flossmoor historical society.  We need to collect important historical documents and photos within the community and archive them in an electronic database.  It is critical that this initiative starts before more material is lost.  Linking this database to "The Houses of Flossmoor" campaign will build additional excitement and interest in the village and its history.

ADVOCATE

The architectural details of our homes are what makes them beautiful.  We need a campaign educating homeowners on how to  sensitively maintain historic homes while improving energy efficiency and the neighborhood aesthetic.
