What Oak Park does
to a stove.

The Ridgeland–Oak Park Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1983, counts 1,558 contributing buildings across 539 acres.

The Gunderson Historic District holds 230 homes built from 1906 to 1920, mostly American Foursquares designed by Frank DeMoney, an early example of tract housing.

Oak Park's historic preservation ordinance was first passed in 1972 and has since been revised.

Oak Park began its rapid rise as a residential suburb in 1872, when it got its own depot on the Chicago and North Western Railway.

Older housing stock

An electric stove in an older house may plug into a receptacle that has seen several stoves come and go, and a cord end that runs warm or shows scorch marks at its prongs is a reason to stop cooking until the receptacle has been checked.

Family houses

In a family house the stove is where children first learn to cook, so a knob that turns on with a light touch, or an oven door that gets too hot to hold, is worth a visit, and knob covers and the oven lock are shown to the parents.

Mixed housing

Older houses on these streets may still feed a gas stove through rigid pipe rather than a flexible connector, which makes pulling it out harder, so the move is planned with the gas off and the connection brought up to current practice.
