The Ravine Bluffs Development in Glencoe, Illinois is a Prairie School ensemble commissioned in 1915 by Sherman Booth Jr., Frank Lloyd Wright's attorney. The complex comprises six residences—including Booth's own home and five rental units—alongside three poured concrete sculptures and a bridge. Five of the rental houses share the standardized floor plan derived from Wright's "A Fireproof House for $5000," though the William F. Ross House deviates with a side-positioned fireplace and was later restored between 2011 and 2014 after architect John Eifler's acquisition. The development is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
