Hello everyone. I am a grad student at Grand Valley State University, studying history for my Masters Degree in Education. This fall, I will be doing a research project on the Meyer May House in Grand Rapids Michigan. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for books, articles, etc. that might be us...

Don't miss the Meyer May House in Grand Rapids its the best Wright in Michigan

Wright didn't design this service station. He only did some minor interior renovations to an existing building.

If you have ever been on the tour of the May House; you have surly seen the video of the restoration the house underwent. You can be sure that it was NOT done for a mere $3 Million.

If you can make the schedule: DO NOT MISS the May house. It is beautiful. I pulled this information off the Steelcase website. (They own the house) Meyer May House 450 Madison Avenue S.E. Grand Rapids, Mich. Open to the public Tuesdays & Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sundays from 1-5 p.m. Last to...

Is Peter Beers around? I love his website but he has not updated it with new pictures in forever

Pittsburg paints (PPG) has a line of colors that they created for Fallingwater. There are about 10-12 colors in the line and one of them is Cherokee Red. I painted my living room with it and it looks great. When you go to a PPG dealer you will need to ask for each color by the number not the name be...

Ah Hah! I have been enjoying this wonderfull site for quite a while now without fail.

It was so nic...

Deke, I was just telling my wife not two nights ago that if I had the opportunity the Booth House would be my ultimate dream house. It is simply amazing looking.

I have called Lawrence Tech a couple of times to see about touring the house (Affleck) and each time they have told me that it is under renovation and not open for tour at present time. Do you have any idea when or if tours of the house are possible?

I am traveling to Chicago this weekend and I was wondering if anybody knows the status of the Robie House. I toured it about 2.5 - 3 year ago and the exterior was completed (looked amazing) but the inside was gutted. I was wondering if I sould see it again now or not yet.

After seeing the Schwartz House on the Travel Channel last night I have been trying to see how many Frank LLoyd Wright works you can actually rent and stay in. Here is what I have come up with. Let my know what I may have missed. Schwartz House Peterson Cottage Haynes House Penfield House Jacobs Hou...

The A-C-D Museum has the Cord L29, which is beautiful. They also have a Crosley which was the car for the apprentises that you were refering to. Also, Joel Silver owns Wright's two Cherokee Red Lincolns. He showed them at last years Concours de Elegance at Pebble Beach, but I believe he keeps them a...
