[Cob] Fallingwater's foundationLeslie Harvey leslitahar at yahoo.comSun Nov 6 20:33:54 CST 2005
Hi Amanda and Charmaine Here's the link to the website for Fallingwater: http://www.paconserve.org/index-fw1.asp I'be had the opportunity to visit a half a dozen times. They've had to do extensive renovation and structural reinforcement in recent years. That aside, it's an interesting place, and absolutely beautiful in all seasons. If anyone has the chance to visit Fallingwater, I strongly suggest making reservations ahead of time. Leslie It was an overly ambitious project that shot up in cost enormously...it was a clever idea to straddle the stream with the house..but has been a constant problem ever since.
