Marilyn Hasbrouck, co-owner of architecture-themed Prairie Avenue Bookshop, dies at 91

She created a bookstore that was a meeting ground for architects and design devotees, where buyers could find rare works or the latest ones — then kick back in furniture designed by the likes of Mies van der Rohe, or Charles Rennie Mackintosh.
