Frank Lloyd Wright at the Unitarian Meeting House

Image

Frank Lloyd Wright (near the center of the image) and friends touring the grounds of the First Unitarian Society meeting house. In the background is the Tudor Revival Isom house, also on the property, which served as the parsonage. It is assumed that Wright disliked the proximity of the Isom House to the building he designed.
