Frank Lloyd Wright was born 150 years ago on June 8th, 1867. To mark the 150th anniversary of the architect’s birth the National Trust for Historic Preservation has released a mapped tour of Frank Lloyd Wright's Pope-Leighey House and a map of some of his most memorable buildings.
A Tour of the Pope-Leighey House includes a floor-plan, photos and descriptions of one of the architects Usonian homes. These were modestly sized, affordable houses designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for the average American. The map uses a floor-plan of the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Usonian house in Alexandria, Virginia as a way for users to explore the house. If you select the markers on the floor-plan you can view photos and a description of the selected room.
A Selection of Frank Lloyd Wright Buildings is a map of some of the architect's most iconic buildings. The buildings on the map are organized into four categories: 1910 and earlier, 1911-1942, After 1945 and Lost or unbuilt. If you choose a building you can view a photo, a description of the building and, where available, a link to the building's Wikipedia page or other relevant websites.
