An annual architectural exhibit at Skokie Ridge Estates, Glencoe, attracts over 5000 visitors and 30 architects, signaling rising home building interest. The firm cites low construction costs, standardized fire resisting homes, and available financing for owner built homes as factors boosting demand.
