Description: Considered one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s last "Bootlegged" Houses. Text: "First Story Plan. House For P. Goan, Esq. La Grange, Ills." The floor plan of the Goan House is similar to the plan of Wright’s own home in Oak Park. The doorway on the right leads to a large hall with an open stairway that leads to the upper four bedrooms and bath. To the left is the living room with a central fireplace and inglenook with built-in seating, much like Wright’s own home. The bay window in the living room does not continue to the second floor. The dining room also has a bay window which does continue to the second floor. The dining room was designed with built-in cabinets with "Glass Panel Doors."

Description: View of the Goan Residence from the Southeast. Most importantly shown in this photograph is the covered front porch. Original plans show a covered porch running the full length of the front of the house. Balustrades were in line with the sills of the upper windows. Balustrades also enclosed the lower portion of the porch. The two corner posts were decorative. Drawings indicated a carved wood base "not included in this contract." They were capped in the drawings with "turned wood balls." These appear to be missing. Two additional porch columns were capped with "Carved Capitals." The two attic dormers were not present on the original drawings, as were the vertical slats seen between the upper windows, breaking the flow of the upper horizontal band. The design of the this house was altered with the removal of the porch at a later date. Bottom left hand corner: "67428." Photographed by Gilman Lane.

       Although at a glance, it appears to have board and batten siding, stereotypical of Wright’s homes around the turn of the century, at close inspection the "boards" are actually cedar shingles. Stucco, set between the upper windows, creates a horizontal band. Running the full length of the front of the house was a covered porch. Balustrades were in line with the sills of the upper windows. Balustrades also enclosed the lower portion of the porch and was still visible in Gilman Lane’s photograph circa 1940. The two corner posts were decorative. Drawings

 

indicated a carved wood base "not included in this contract." They were capped in the drawings with "turned wood balls." Two additional porch columns were capped with "Carved Capitals." Above the side door on the North Elevation is a tall window, allowing light to flood the stairwell. Missing from the drawing, but visible in Lane’s photograph are the attic dormers. The only dormer Wright indicated was on the back side of the house. Also missing from the drawings are the vertical slats added to the between the upper windows, breaking the flow of the upper horizontal band. The design of the house was altered with the removal of the porch.
