Demolition on hold for Wright house in Phoenix Oct 3rd 2012, 21:08 Published October 03, 2012 Associated Press PHOENIX – The city of Phoenix and a developer who was poised to demolish a Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home have reached an agreement that will put any work on hold while a search continues for a buyer. A senior adviser for Mayor Frank Stanton said Wednesday that the agreement with the developers who bought the 1952 home in the city's Arcadia neighborhood delays for nearly a month any demolition of the house. Adviser Brendan Mahoney says the deal signed Monday allows time to find a buyer who will preserve the house. The potential demolition of the sweeping home set on more than 2 acres set off a firestorm in the architectural community. The Chicago-based Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy hurried to get historic status designation while the developer fought the effort. | |
