Bradley Lodge - Exterior

This is a view of the original state of this nursing residence built on North Campus, Lake Forest College, for the Alice Home cottage hospital. It was a d1926 design of Anderson & Ticknor (Stanley D. Anderson, '16), in a Cotswold cottage style, typical also of AIA Gold Medalist architect Howard Van Doren Shaw, for whom Anderson had worked 1920-25. "Details such as the wooden beams on the front facade of Cleveland-Young evoke the vernacular architecture of Tudor England, creating an inviting sense of domesticity. The yellow stucco and variegated slate roof add attractive elements of color and texture, while the window dormers on the roof and large chimney add to the structure's homey appeal. Perhaps its most attractive elements are the scupper boses on the downspouts, prosaic features designed to manage the flow from more than one sources; those on Cleveland-Young are shaped like tiny castles" (Sara C. Woodbury on Bradley Lodge in "Lake Forest College: A Guide to the Campus," 2007, pp. 29-30).
