HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY
Numerous buildings designed by Frank Lloyd Wright have their importance recognized by inclusion in the Historic American Buildings Survey. The survey files may include historic photographs, documentary photographs, measured architectural drawings, historical notes, and other descriptive data. John Geiger considered these records of interest for understanding the life of a Wright building, particularly changes wrought over time by alterations to the original structure. The links below access the project page at the Library of Congress HABS collection website.
