The plan to save Fallingwater

Article Abstract:

Fallingwater is considered Frank Lloyd Wright's best achievement, but it is structurally unsound. Reinforcement of the main beams of the home, originally built for the Edgar Kaufmann family, is described by an engineer who worked on the project in the late 1990s. The actual project will not take place until 2001-02.
