Mimi and Dan Collins, the latest owners of Château du Parc, a 100-year-old property in central Hinsdale in collaboration with the Hinsdale Historical Society, celebrated the completion of renovations to the house.

As the Village of Hinsdale marked its sesquicentennial anniversary in 2023, the suburb has struggled to maintain its historic charm. In November 2020 Mimi and Dan Collins became the latest owners of Château du Parc, a 100-year-old property in central Hinsdale; Thursday night the couple, in collaboration with the Hinsdale Historical Society, celebrated the completion of renovations to the house. “Everything was moved around, updated, it was really needed.” Mimi said.

“Once it burned down, decided to rebuild the structure with Pyro-Bloc, a hollow core tile rather than the traditional material,” Alexis Braden, historical society trustee and Hinsdale Village Board member, said in an interview with the Doings. Visitors congregate near the entryway of the chateau as they listen to live music. The Hinsdale Historical Society held a fund raiser for the R. Harold Zook Home and Studio at a restored mansion originally built in 1924, Oct. 5, 2023, in Hinsdale.
