Classic Craftsman style arched fireplace and restored art glass windows in a Chicago Bungalow. The Craftsman style bungalow spread across the US in the early 20th century, providing housing for millions of middle-class Americans. In the expanding trolley suburbs of Chicago a particular type of bungalow evolved to suit the long narrow urban lots laid out by planners. More than 80,000 Chicago Bungalows were built!
