I was in SW PA last week and toured Fallingwater and The Hagan House (KentuckKnob.com).
Anybody else been to them?
There are supposedly a couple of his houses in WNY. Anybody know where they are?
Any recommendations for other FLW houses to see?
Fallingwater is the bigger more well known of the two houses and is more of an entertainment/show-off home, where Hagan House is an everyday living home. Each does have the unique FLW pieces of Flair, but I find myself liking Hagan House much better.

Guess that aint the one I was thinking about. Actually, I may have been thinking about that mushroom looking house...Maybe it just grew there, or somethingE.E. Boynton House (S.147), Rochester, New York, 1908.
This two-story Prairie house is built in the elongated "T" plan. Mr. Wright paid close attention to the details of this house's construction, right down to requiring that 28 elm trees be planted on the lot.
