Libertyville designates landmarks

Libertyville's first local historic landmarks were formally designated Tuesday by the village board. The Cook House, 413 N. Milwaukee Ave., in the heart of downtown, and the David Adler Estate, 1700 N. Milwaukee Ave., were each found to have five criteria for the designation as recommended by the village's Historic Preservation Commission. Criteria includes that the structure represent the work of an architect, designer, engineer or builder whose individual work is significant in the history or development of the village, and has a distinctive appearance or presence. The designation means any improvements are subject to special review and regulations.
