Frank Lloyd Wright’s original San Francisco office has been rebuilt in Erie, Pennsylvania. It will be available for visitors to walk through for the first time on July 17 when the Erie County Historical Society-Hagen History Center reopens. The Center made the announcement during a Facebook Live event in honor of Frank Lloyd Wright’s birthday, June 8, 1867.
Erie’s Jeff Kidder, of Kidder Architects, and Mike Jefferys, of Kidder Jefferys Construction LLC, handled curation and installation. Kidder served as curator, and Jefferys led the physical installation team. “It’s the one thing he designed for himself in California,” Kidder said of Wright. “It was located on the second floor of a four-story building, and visitors will get that feeling as soon as they enter the exhibit.”
