<p>[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 619278, member: 55"]I'm not disagreeing with that at all. It is a good thing that Falling Water has now been retrofitted, and should last for a while. But it is absolutely true that he thought in terms of beauty, and not durability. Falling Water began to fall apart as soon as it was built, and had it not been such an architectural icon, nobody would have spent the money to retrofit it, and it would be gone today - which would have been a sad loss.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
