    Now this is really a dream home. A Frank Lloyd Wright house. Especially of The Modernist era, with all indoor decor and furnishings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Saw the one outside of LA a few years ago.

    I recently retired from a career of 40 years in construction... from working with the tools, foreman, superintendent, estimating, project management, design, value engineering and now consulting... It would be an honor and fulfill a dream, to be allowed to continue the exploration, continued restoration and conservation of this magnificent property...

      @@sharksport01 I as well as nickdannunzio have the same background. I have owned a prairie style with usonian aspects. You will need a lot of time and money for starters. Restoration, remodel, or maintenance? I have been involved with restorations and depending on your home and your goals will determine what you need. Exteriors of the style wither quicker as FLW's designs accent nature and deteriorate much quicker because of nature. In short the exteriors are not built to last.

    What's going on with the windows? It appears that the original windows have been removed and replaced with vinyl windows. This is an egregious alteration. Were the original windows retained in storage? What other changes have been made to the house?

    There are actually people among us who would buy one of Wright's houses and have it demolished so they could build "their version" of a luxurious residence. It has happened. There is no limit to the ignorance of some people.

    The best location for dating your new cyber supporters, a Facebook size of five thousand guests might go perfectly, who wants to date the genius Lloyd? When there is a Open House happening, a music concert, finger food exhibition and interesting people to date with, nobody could resist it, think about it Ok?
