George Pullman died at home in 1897, leaving his widow Harriet in their once-grand Prairie Avenue mansion. By then, the neighborhood’s glory was fading as factories and warehouses crept south from downtown. Wealthy families moved north, and by the 1910s, Prairie Avenue’s mansions had become boarding houses or business sites. Printing and manufacturing eventually took over the district, ending its era as Chicago’s most elite address. | Chicago's Gilded Age
