19th century red brick three-flat apartment building wood-framed cottage sharing same lot, demolished in wicker park

a well maintained three-flat red brick apartment building punctuated with ornamental floral moif anderson pressed brick, fret-sawn painted pine wood window lunettes and original ornamental cast and wrought iron newel, bracket and pipe railings (flanking stoops and front elevation), were demolished and trucked off to the landfill. 

in addition, a structurally sound pre-fire wood-framed chicago workers cottage raised and moved towards the back of the lot (likely when the apartment complex was built around 1890), was also taken down. 

i've thoroughly documented both structures - both prior to demolition and after (see previous post with link at bottom).
