    Frank Lloyd Wright’s amazing design.

    I’ve been fascinated with a house built over a waterfall ever since I first saw a special about it on TV years ago.  It’s not far from Pittsburgh, and I knew I had to make time to visit before returning home from Market.

    And the first views of the house were stunning!  The house is a series of cantilevered levels built right over the falls.

    This stairway descends from inside the living room down into a pool at the top of the falls.  Perfect for a morning dip!

    We took the tour, but they didn’t allow interior photos.  I think you can get a sense of the place from these outside shots.
