Frank Lloyd Wright Designed Five (Six) Cottages at White Lake. By John A. Chisholm. Whitehall - Few White Lakers today are aware of the fact this area can boast five of the earliest works of the late world famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. The five, three of which retain the Wright concept, are in the Birch Brook Subdivision on South Shore Drive. These three have remained as summer homes. The other two have been remodeled and altered into year-around dwellings. Three summer homes belong to the Arthur Potter family, Miss Ann Peterson of Chicago, and her late sister, Helen Peterson, and Todd Lunsford, of North Muskegon. Made into permanent homes have been the dwellings of the Wilfred Myrmel family and the late OF. G. R. Lundquist. The latter recently was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Rudy Cooper, of the Whiethall District schools faculty. As related by Arthur Potter, whose parents, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur C. Potter owned the former Bonne Vista summer resort nearby, the White Lake community came by these examples of Wright's architectural ideas through the friendship of Oak Park, Ill., summer...

P. D. Hoyt Residence, Geneva, Illinois, Front Facade Circa 1970s (1906 - S.120). Not dated View of the Hoyt Residence from the East. Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1906. The Hoyt House is similar in design to the Hunt and Stockman houses. In some respects a simplification of the design used in Wright's "Fireproof" House. Square in its footprint, it is constructed of stucco with wood trim. The entrance is in the center of the front elevation and opens into the living room. Unusual for Wright because he preferred concealing the entrance. It appears very symmetrical in design. Another design element unique to the Hoyt House is the letter "H" monogram repeated at the top portion of every window. Wright emphasizes the vertical appearance with wood strips that extend from the first to the second floors, and wrap around the four corners. The trellis-arbor originally above the front door that surrounds the entrance was removed in 1917. It was replace by a small roof which is visible. Copy of photograph published in Frank Lloyd Wright Monogram 1902-1906, Pfeiffer, 1989, p. 220. 8.5 x 8 Color photograph. Courtesy of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. 1846.132.0121

Pope-Leighey House Circa 1970, viewed from the West. There are a few details that place this photograph close to the 1969 images, but at a later date. Damage to the fascia , about 2-3 feet from the Western corner is consistent with 1969. The screened Terrace is missing the screen, as is evident in 1969, #6. Details that place it at a little later date: mature plants, oil stains on the drive and the mail box. These and the cat at the entrance would indicate that Mrs. Leighey is now living in the home. Also in the Chadwick interview published in 1969, he says "I also feel that the screened porch and terrace must be rebuilt." P.75. It is interesting to note that although Wright's original plans included the design for the screen, it had not been built when it was published in The Natural House, 1954.

Tenants and owners of a West Side co-operative are fighting to save their home - a rare Frank Lloyd Wright apartment building - from the wrecking ball... Each of the 46 units has its own exterior entrance facing a once handsomely landscaped interior courtyard. There are no hallways to heat or to provide hiding places for thugs. The typical Chicago flat in 1895 when Wright designed the building was cramped, and often light and fresh air failed to reach many of the units. Wright meant his building to be a prototype for better living condition for the poor... In 1930, the building was converted into a co-operative project... Almost half of the units are vacant, and about six have been gutted by fires... Faced with possible court action condemning the building, the residences sought help from Michael Brown, an attorney.. Architects estimate renovation costs would be from $11,000 to $15,000 for each dwelling unit..." Stamped on verso: "Chicago Daily News. Dec 9, 1971." Original 10 x 8 B&W Print.

Frederick C. Bogk Residence Interior 1974 (1916 - S.196). View of the Living Room with built-in seating/end-table/book shelf and fireplace. Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Bogk Residence in 1916. The built-in seating/end-table/book shelf was designed by Wright, and is consistent with other furniture designed for the home. The edge of the book shelf and end-table is edged with inset ebony. This design was repeated in other living and dining room furniture. The hassocks are Wright designed, and appear throughout the house, but appear to be a later addition and do not match the other furniture Wright designed for the Bogk House. See "Frank Lloyd Wright and George Mann Niedecken", 1999, p. 48-58. The hassocks are identical to the Frank Lloyd Wright "Four Square" Hassock designed for the Heritage Henredon Line of Fine Furniture in 1955 but never produced. Stamped on verso: "File Nov 4 1974."

Article pasted to verso: "Stewart and Betty Roberts of Oak park have a painstakingly restored 11-room Frank Lloyd Wright house for sale, and almost anyone with $99,000 can have it. But only if the buyer promises not to make any changes. Certainly everyone knows of Wright and of the elegant beauty f the prairie homes he designed. Anyone can view the outside of a dozen of these homes - including this one, the Cheney house built in 1904 - on the regularly scheduled walking tours of Oak Park every Sunday afternoon. It's surprising then to the Robertses that many potential buyers not only don't appreciate a Wright house but also would want o rip out rooms, paint the natural wood trim and beams and make other changes that would undermine the warm and comfortable character of this classic house. The Robertses are looking for someone who would love and live in this architectural artwork without making any changes... By Jerry De Muth." Stamped on verso: "Jun 23 1974".

1975 Melvyn Maxwell Smith Residence, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. (1946 - S.287). Exterior. Article taped to verso: "...It has been 25 years now. A quarter of a century since Smith, an English teacher now retired, finished building it. A quarter of a century after Smith, a would-be architect, suggested a design change that Wright -- acknowledged as one of the great architects - accepted and praised. A quarter of a century of utter fascination with the house and the man who designed it. It's rare for a man to possess one great possession, said Smith, "but my most precious possession is my home.' From the road, the house shows little more than cypress wood, brick, and a succession of tiny off-shaped windows. But on the other side of the house, the side a passer-by can't see, complex geometries of glass sheets project in and out of that brick and cyprus framework. "It seems like a natural outcropping,' said Smith, staring at the building. "Like a rock, or a bush or a tree." Wright believed that architecture should complement and blend with he land which surrounds it. So when Smith shows off his house, like any good advocate of Wright's "organic architecture,' he begins with a tour of the three acres of grounds.

When Frank Lloyd Wright built his Studio in 1898, he had Bock design the four sided Stork Pillars that appear at the Entrance to the studio. "The first work I did in the new studio (Rookery Building) was the pilasters for the entrance to Wright's Oak Park studio, Showing storks standing among foliage beside a scroll with an architectural plan..." Memories of An American Artist," Bock, 1989/1991, p.67. He also worked on the "Boulder" sculpture at the same time. In 1911, When Wright converted his studio to Apartments, he squared off the corners of the second level, added a cantilevered rood, and added the sculptures just under the rood line. Two per side. The artist is unknown, but the are very similar to the Stork sculptures. Two seated men, arm in arm are sitting in front of the same tree form as the stork, leaves and berries. There is a long unscrolled scroll, and two small ones. Although not specified as a Bock, there are similarities. When the Restoration committee made the decision in 1977 to restore the Home and Studio to 1909, the upper story of the studio was restored to an octagon, the cantilever was removed as well as the sculptured figures.

Wright's early drawings showed rough outlines of stained glass in the "lunettes" that ringed the upper level of the church.

The stained glass windows were deferred in 1959, before the Building Committee had a chance to accept or reject Masselink's designs. In their place the contractor installed single panes of uninsulated clear glass...  Continue...
