Forest Ranger's house. I beleive his last name was Bredfelt in the early 70's. View facing E/SE, near NW corner of McDowell Forest Preserve.

The house disappeared sometime between 1994 and 1998.

This was the rangers house for McDowell Grove Forest Preserve. His name in this era was Harry Bredfeldt. I am his daughter. We lived in this house from about 1973-1981. The house was still there when we moved but it was torn down because the forest preserve district stopped housing rangers in the parks.

Jeannine Bredfeldt Johnson, do you have anymore photos of the house?
