A comment received from a friend:

"I attended a wedding reception in the new (perhaps the last) Wright building in Madison, w hich looks picturesquely over Lake Menona, but is dominated structurally by a huge concrete parking lot; drive by the downtown and you're under it, looking up as in any other hideous building on the planet. .And that's the main way the building is experienced every day, natch. There are some wonderful Wright homes scattered around the city and in the countryside around Madison, but they were intended for the well=off (including profs) and remain so. Actually, the vernacular architecture of 1920 or so is more interesting, more Wisconsin-like."
