Along Bell Road in the Messenger Marsh Preserve, one of the few remaining farm buildings is the Tilsey Farm Milk House.

Built around 1880, this milk house represents the agricultural history that once dominated this area which is now mostly residential subdivisions and strip mall shopping areas.

Since it sits on Forest Preserve property, it will not be redeveloped, but the milk house's survival is not guarenteed due to its condition.
