Facts and practical information

Hinman Apartments is a historic apartment building at 1629-1631 Hinman Avenue in Evanston, Illinois. Built in 1904, the three-story brick building has six apartments. Architects Atchison & Edbrooke, who also designed Evanston's Ridgewood Apartments, designed the building in the Classical Revival style. The building's design includes a two-story portico supported by Ionic columns, bow windows on either side of the portico, and a dentillated cornice and parapet. The apartments are arranged in a railroad plan, with rooms arranged along a long central hallway; while this layout was often associated with cheap apartments, the Hinman still targeted upper-class residents with its design and amenities.
