Great Architecture For The Masses
"Pieces of architectural history sit on Milwaukee's south side - a row of four duplexes and two cottages designed by Frank Lloyd Wright more than 90 years ago for low- to moderate-income families. But years of extreme makeovers, including aluminum siding added to one house, rendered some of them shells of their former designs. Now a nonprofit group wants to restore the Frank Lloyd Wright charm to one of the single-family homes... The group hopes to make it a museum, inspire others to renovate the four remaining structures and motivate architects to design housing for the disadvantaged." Dallas Morning News (AP) 06/16/07
