  • If you're a fan of 80's & 90's John Hughes movies, then this town probably holds a special place in your heart. The Home Alone house is at 6:46 in the video. You do not see the house since our primary film of view is in the front direction. You will see a black iron fence that was put up to keep people out and from knocking on the door asking for Kevin. This is the neighborhood in Sept 2023. Enjoy the Village of Winnetka, which is a lovely town that has been in several movies like Home Alone and Uncle Buck.
    FUN FACT: The Home Alone house interior was primarily filmed in the gym at New Trier High School. Yes, they re-created the house interior and built it in the gym. But they did film a little in the house and the streets around the actual house where you see Kevin running and walking around the neighborhood.
    Enjoy the ride!
    HOME ALONE
    Home Alone is a 1990 American Christmas comedy film directed by Chris Columbus and written and produced by John Hughes. The first film in the Home Alone franchise, the film stars Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Heard, and Catherine O'Hara. Culkin plays Kevin McCallister, a boy who defends his suburban Chicago home from a home invasion after his family accidentally leaves him behind on their Christmas vacation to Paris.
    Hughes conceived Home Alone while on vacation, with Warner Bros. being originally intended to finance and distribute the film. However, Warner Bros. shut down production after it exceeded its assigned budget. 20th Century Fox assumed responsibilities following secret meetings with Hughes. Columbus and Culkin were hired soon afterwards. Filming took place between February and May 1990 on location across Illinois.
    Home Alone premiered in Chicago on November 10, 1990, and was theatrically released in the United States on November 16. While the film's reception was initially mixed, in later years reception has been generally positive, with praise for its cast, humor, and music.

    My wife grew up in Winnetka, her neighborhood. My neighborhood is on the Southside of Chicago in the wild 💯 which is the Roseland neighborhood.
