Spring 2005
This is a home built by Frank Loyd Wright for the famous Kaufman family of
the department store fame. Falling Water is southeast of Pittsburgh and southwest
of Johnstown. About a 3.5 hour drive for us.

Centilever was the word for the day.
We had a great time on the tour. We asked all kinds of questions of the guide about the engineering
features. After the tour we looked around a bit and explored and commented on various aspects of
the design.
