By the beginning of the 20th century, a list of Lake Forest's residents read like a "Who's Who" of Chicago's rich and famous. That tradition continues to this day in the exclusive North Shore suburb.
With a town plan heavily influenced by English gardens, Lake Forest is home to mansions and vast estates seated on the bluffs overlooking Lake Michigan.
Originally built to support church-related schools in the 1860s, the town surrounds the 107-acre residential campus of Lake Forest College as well as Lake Forest Academy, one of the country's best prep schools.
