About Wilmette, IL
Wilmette (ZIP 60091) is a lakefront village of ~28,000 known for the Baháʼí House of Worship — one of the great concrete structures of the 20th century
The village's 1900s–1930s brick and stucco homes in the CTA-adjacent east side feature soft historic brick that demands lime-rich mortar for repointing — hard modern mortar would spall it within a few winters
Lake Michigan exposure east of Green Bay Road accelerates masonry weathering — wind-driven rain and freeze-thaw cycles hit chimneys, parapets, and front stoops hardest
Wilmette's mature tree canopy keeps many foundations shaded and damp, driving demand for waterproofing, efflorescence treatment, and drainage-conscious flatwork

Wilmette's 1900s–1930s brick and stucco homes east of Green Bay Road were built with soft historic brick that hard modern mortar would spall within a few winters.
