Homewood benefited greatly from the Illinois Central Railroad which routed its tracks through the area in the 1890s.The town grew quickly due to the suburban service allowing for easy transit to Chicago. In the 1880s to the early 1900s the Homewood Brick Company manufactured all of the bricks used to build early Homewood homes. 18243 was built with these local bricks stamped simply "Homewood". The logo was turned inside for brick laying but if you look closely, you may find one turned outward!
