Visitors are able to walk around this ‘flat pack’ house which was originally erected in Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo, in 1951. In 2000 the house was found in Brazzaville, in a dilapidated state and riddled with bullet holes. The house was dismantled, returned to France and restored.
Florida Tropical House with Snow
With a frozen lake in the background and snow drifts on the sand, this Florida Tropical House sits on the shore of Lake Michican, part of the Century of Progress exhibit from the 1933 Worlds Fair , held that year in Chicago. On the eastern edge of the Indiana Dunes National Shoreline is Beverly Shores.
Robert Bartlett, purchased the properties in 1933, He named the entire development after his daughter Beverly,and continued to develop its infrastructure with roads, a school, a golf course, and a hotel. He purchased and relocated sixteen structures from Chicago's 1933-34 Century of Progress World's Fair, four of which were transported by barges on Lake Michigan.
The community was incorporated in 1947. After World War II, a number of industrial developments, including Burns Harbor, were built to the east, and by the 1950s environmental organizations had begun to push for preservation of the area. The Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore was established in 1966. During the 1970s, there was a movement to purchase all the homes in Beverly Shores and incorporate the entire town into the National Lakeshore. This initiative did not succeed, but many local properties were acquired, especially those in the wetlands that constitute the southern portion. The acquisition process is ongoing. The owners of lots fronting on the beach were granted lifetime leasebacks with the proviso that the property would revert to the National Lakeshore; many of these houses have since been demolished.
The 1970s saw a period of record high lake levels and beach erosion; the owners of lakefront properties often responded by dumping large quantities of concrete blocks (riprap) onto the sand in front of their houses, which continue to mar the beach. The beach is now conspicuously public, although nearby parking is limited.

Century of Progress - Florida Tropical House
Built for 1933 Chicago World's Fair to demonstrate modern architectural design the Century of Progress Houses were brought to the dunes by barge in 1935 by Robert Bartlett to entice buyers to his new resort community of Beverly Shores. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the houses are being restored through a partnership of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana and private parties.
