Come to Oak Park for the arts. Stay for the architecture. The Chicago suburb prides itself on its vibrant community for theater, dance, music and the visual arts. But it also boasts the most Frank Lloyd Wright houses anywhere (the venerated architect laid some of his first foundations here).
Meet a fellow design-lover on a pedal tour of his homes. Or on the rare occasion when one hits the market, take your wealthy paramour inside and price it out. But caveat emptor: Love doesn't come cheap. Wright homes can start at a million bucks and up.
