Melwood Apartments
Since 1901
Melwood Apartments is a historic apartment building at the northeast corner of Michigan Avenue and Hamilton Street in Evanston, Illinois. Built in 1901, the three-story building was one of the first apartment buildings in Evanston. Its construction sparked an outcry in the surrounding neighborhood, which had consisted entirely of single-family houses; the controversy was a precursor to further fights over zoning in Evanston, which ultimately led to the city passing the state's first zoning law in 1921.
