17801 W. Washington St., Gurnee (SW corner of Washington St. and Almond Rd.), looking SW. The house is still there and now home to the Warren Special Recreation Association. The barn above the silo and the barn to the left of the silo and mostly hidden by the trees is now the Gurnee Teen Center. The two other sheds are still there as well. The only thing missing today is the silo, which was removed for the Teen Center addition.

This was the Elsbury Farm which was sold to Warren Township about 1970s.
