The Charles N. Loucks House, built in 1889 in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood, is a Queen Anne residence designed by architect Clarence H. Tabor for the real estate developer Charles N. Loucks. The house showcases characteristic features of the style, including a front porch with carved wooden trim and pediment, a front-facing gable adorned with floral designs, and a distinctive tower topped by a conical roof. The interior is distinguished by art glass windows combining clear and stained glass in floral patterns inspired by English and Japanese design. Listed as a Chicago Landmark and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, the house reflects both the architectural taste and development ambitions of late nineteenth-century Chicago.
