A building permit for 604 Arlington Place was listed in the American Contractor's Chicago building permit database May 18, 1901 (p. 21). A year later (May 31, 1902, p. 25) the database references a second building permit issued for the adjoining 606-608 Arlington Place lots. The owner's name was listed alternately as "Mary Eckstrom" and "Maria Eckstrom." See entries for other adjacent Eckstrom Residences at 606 and 608 W. Arlington Place (below). It is likely that this building has been severely altered from Cobb's original design.

Swank, Charles W., Residence 548 W. Arlington Pl. (originally 1822 Arlington Pl.), Chicago, IL Henry Ives Cobb, 1901   Map

American Contractor's Chicago building permit database reported the issuance of a building permit on March 16, 1901 (p.22). If the house was built, it was likely torn down to make way for the 1920s era apartment building that now occupies the lot. Swank was most likely a speculative builder and not the occupant of this house.

Astor St. Two adjacent residences at 1435 and 1443 N.
