Seems like he should get a little more attention for his span of relevance..one of the few that were in the prairie period through mid century. Pretty impressive, yes?

New photos -- very helpful. That public space is really alive, isn't it -- multiple exposures, levels, enclosures and ceilings.

Thank you for posting this article about my WI home. I also appreciate the kind remarks. Here is the thread I started on this site where I was expressing my gratitude to the members of Wright Chat for tipping me off that this RBW home was for sale back in 2007: http://wrightchat.savewright.org/viewto ... 1623eabb6c

Thanks -- again -- cottonwood. (We'll have to get our resident librarian to do a bit more searching, before posting a new topic ?) We (still) love your house . . . very much.

Thank you! We're preparing to say goodbye to our home. It went quickly under contract and we're closing soon. When I think about what it looked like when we bought it and what we did to restore it, it was all worth the effort and expense. The new stewards appear to be conservationists; otherwise, I wouldn't have sold the home to them. I appreciate all of the encouragement and inspiration the members of this board have given me over the years.
