Frank Lloyd Wright’s Staircase Home in Phoenix Saved by Anonymous Buyer | Zillow Blog
We express architectural and cultural thanks to the anonymous buyer who saved the Frank Lloyd Wright architectural landmark in Phoenix from being razed by developers to whom the City of Phoenix had previously granted a permit to demolish the house -- a structure which was not historically designated at the time, but for which, the City now claims, a process of historic designation had already previously started.
Be that as it may, we throw no stones here in terms of fault, but in a relatively young country on the world scene with -- as compared to Europe or the Ancient World -- fewer things of artistic, architectural or cultural value available, it would seem that America should be especially proud of the fewer things of artistic, architectural and cultural value that they DO have and protect them accordingly.
