George W. Maher House

The Root-Badger House is a historic house at 326 Essex Road in Kenilworth, Illinois. The house was built in 1896 for music publisher Frank K. Root. Architect Daniel Burnham, who was the lead architect for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, designed the Neoclassical house. Burnham's work on the Columbian Exposition popularized Neoclassical architecture throughout the country, and his later works such as the Root-Badger House continued in this tradition. The house's design includes a two-story rounded portico supported by four Ionic columns, a balcony above the front door, an entablature with a dentillated cornice, and a balustrade encircling the roof.The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 19, 1992.

The Mr. J. William de Coursey O'Grady House is a historic house at 149 Kenilworth Avenue in Kenilworth, Illinois. The house was built on speculation as part of the Kenilworth Company's initial development in 1898; original owner J. William de Coursey O'Grady did not buy the house until 1901. Architect Franklin Pierce Burnham, the company architect for the Kenilworth Company, designed the Neoclassical house; Burnham had previously designed the Georgia State Capitol and the Kane County Courthouse. While Neoclassical architecture was popular in commercial and government buildings, especially in the years following the 1893 Columbian Exposition, it was not commonly used in houses, and there are few other examples of the style in Kenilworth. The house's design includes a symmetrical facade, four Ionic pilasters, a dentillated architrave and cornice, and a pediment above the entrance.The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 2008.

The Kenilworth Assembly Hall is a historic clubhouse located at 410 Kenilworth Avenue in Kenilworth, Illinois. The clubhouse was built in 1907 as a social club for the wealthy Chicago suburb. Resident and noted Prairie School architect George W. Maher designed the building. His design represents a transitional stage in his work; it was his last building to feature a significant horizontal emphasis, and it includes several early hints at style elements he later became known for. The windows are arranged in groups of three, which was typical of Maher's later works, and a stem-and-square motif used in several external elements evokes the signature thistle patterns he introduced the next year. The horizontal elements, which include the broad eaves and wall paneling, exhibit Maher's difficulties with the horizontal form of the Prairie School and were called "unsatisfactory" by architectural historian Carl W. Condit.The clubhouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 21, 1979.The Kenilworth Club donated the Kenilworth Assembly Hall to the Kenilworth Park District on August 1, 2016.

The William McJunkin House is a historic house at 151 Sheridan Road in Winnetka, Illinois.

Architect Charles Whitley Stevens designed the building in the Jacobethan style, a less common variation of the popular Tudor Revival style. The house has a limestone exterior and features a large Flemish gable atop a projecting entrance block, a pediment above the doorway, arches surrounding the main entrance and living room windows, and a clay tile roof.

Mahoney Park is a public park on Sheridan Road in the southeast corner of Kenilworth, Illinois. The park opened in 1933 on land donated to the village by the Mahoney family, who required that the land become a park as a condition of their donation.

Jensen's design for the park was inspired by the Prairie School movement and includes curving paths, wildflowers, islands of shrubbery and trees, bird baths, and seven council rings. The park is the only remaining small park designed by Jensen and is a rare intact example of his work in north suburban Chicago, as many of his larger works were later subdivided.The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 10, 1985.
