Wright Chat

I stayed there a couple of years ago. It was in fairly good shape though mostly empty.
Quite interesting inside.

Interesting video but typical of local promotion.

This is a video lecture by Dianne Harris presented by Dumbarton Oaks in March, 2021.
It is interesting in that it mainly centers on Broadacre City and Wright's use of the term"Darky Village" for the Jesse C. Fischer, Jr. housing project of 1957.

Beautiful house. I'm disappointed that they didn't show the interior. An odd listing.

It would be helpful to stop referring to the 2nd Little house as "Northome." Northome is the area of the country that the house was located in, not the name of the house. It was, as listed by Storrer, built in 1912 and demolished in 1972. Storrer also lists it as "Northome" and I will have to ask hi...

Please, get rid of the grass and the trees.
Back to the original.

Not enough gold for my taste.
