Comments on: Frank Lloyd Wright house in Arizona faces demolition http://www.dezeen.com/2012/09/05/frank-lloyd-wright-house-in-arizona-faces-demolition/ architecture and design magazine Fri, 24 May 2013 12:52:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: nancy http://www.dezeen.com/2012/09/05/frank-lloyd-wright-house-in-arizona-faces-demolition/comment-page-1/#comment-1005220 nancy Thu, 04 Oct 2012 16:40:00 +0000 http://admin.dezeen.com/?p=242673#comment-1005220 In viewing the segment on the Wright house I was reminded of the heartache I suffered in trying to save my home, the Sid Solomon House, designed by Gene Leedy of the Sarasota Florida School of Architecture. After all the money spent and emotional trama the sad part is that it is gone to the future generations to learn from and enjoy. I wonder if a compromise could be made in the zoning laws to keep the house and also allow the two new houses with the understanding that upkeep would be done by the state or city in the way of education. Maybe an architectual group could step up to the plate to arrange a multiple upkeep answer. This house should be recognized as an asset to the community. When it is gone it will be regretted by all concerned that have a brain to use to find a happy medium for all.
