The Northwestern University Settlement House is a Arts and Crafts style house in Chicago, Illinois, United States. The settlement house was built in 1901 by Pond & Pond. It was designated a Chicago Landmark on December 1, 1993.[1]

History

In January of 1891, the President of Northwestern University, Henry Wade Rogers, his wife Emma, and two faculty members founded the Settlement Association. They modeled the house on the University Settlement model, developed by Toynbee Hall in London. The Settlement House formally opened its new building at 1400 W. Augusta Boulevard, in 1901.
