We saw this over at Treehugger. A F.L.W. house burned down in Chicago on Monday. The Chicago Tribune wrote: The Wynant House was built about 1915 for the president of a local insurance company. It was believed to be one of the few remaining houses built from Wright's designs by a short-lived Wisconsin prefabricated housing company, American System-Built Houses.
It's wild that, although the house is completely charred, you can still see how stunning it was. A total bummer.
this fire is right on the heels of the adler and sullivan-designed pilgrim baptist church in chicago. i wonder if there's a connection...
it's really too bad especially because it was under renovation. I guess that's the end of that or, at least, they'll have to reconsider.
I think they really ought to do whatever they bloody have to do to built it back.
Just figure it out and do it and don't stammer and stutter and give me any excuses, because I don't want to hear it. Did I ask whether it was feasible? No. Just do it.
This house burned down in January of 2006 in Gary, Indiana.
