J.J. TindallWithin walking distance: my fave #FrankLloydWright residence, one of about 15 w/in a few blocks. Greatest concentration of Wright residential masterpieces in the world (from 1885-1909). Heurtley House, 1902. Oak Park, IL #architecture #tourguide
Across the street, Nathan Moore House, '85/'23 (restored after fire). Wright's vision gr8tly infuenced by Brits: #artsandcrafts #WillilamMorris #CRAshbee #Vosysey #Lutyens. Here, Wright was hungry for work, client wanted English Tudor.
Within a block: (L) Thomas Gale House 1892, (R) Walter Gale House 1893. Early "Bootlegs" made while working for Sullivan (moonlighting was NOT done; contractually), attributed to Wright colleague Corwin. Before he found his Voice; called the style "Hans Christian Andersen."
