Decayed Chicago

I've seen a couple of pictures of this structure on flickr so I thought I'd seek it out. Located in the northeastern part of Brighton Park at 36th and Artesian, the home was built in 1875 for a local explosives factory owner, later it was sold to Joseph Mccaffrey who developed the town of Brighton.

Currently a Chicago landmark it's apparently being restored, though it doesn't look like much progress has been made
