Frank Lloyd Wright and Midway Gardens

Frank Lloyd Wright and Midway Gardens by Kruty, Paul. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780252023668.

Built in Chicago in 1914, Frank Lloyd Wrights Midway Gardens was a concert garden that included an indoor restaurant and dance hall, a five-tiered outdoor summer garden with band shell, a tavern, and a private club--a work of art on the grandest scale. Demolished in 1929, Midway Gardens is at the heart of a quintessential American tale, a great hybrid of Old and New World sensibilities, and a monument to the cultural use of buildings. 218 photos.
