Oak Ridge Apartments, located at 1615–1625 Ridge Avenue in Evanston, Illinois, is a three-story brick apartment building constructed in 1914. Designed by architect Andrew Sandegren—who also designed several Chicago apartment buildings and notably lived in the building himself—the structure exemplifies Tudor Revival style with distinctive projecting entrance bays, a crenellated roofline with projecting gables, and an open central courtyard. The apartments were appointed with upper-class amenities including servants' quarters, sunrooms, and brick fireplaces. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
