FLW in Alabama?

The Rosenbaum House. A single-family home designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright and built for Stanley and Mildred Rosenbaum in Florence, Alabama in 1940. The only Wright building in Alabama.

 

Here you are looking at the side of the house -- the front entrance is to the right facing the street. The street that I am standing on to take the photo probably didn't exist until much later in the life of the house.

 

The Rosenbaum House was one of the first Usonian houses designed by Wright. Wright considered the Usonian to be a house for middle income people owing to their moderate size.

 

The Rosenbaum family managed to keep all of the Wright-designed elements in the house intact including the original furniture. Truly an amazing house and a wonderful preservation of Wright's heritage.
