Fallingwater site

The Greatroom in Fallingwaters is located on the first floor closest to the waterfall.

You can walk (using your Second Life avatar) through this area with its hatchway to the creek below and decks to both the east and the west. This is still a work in progress. What better way to learn for your art history classes and appreciate a unique work of American architecture than to experience and explore? Live websites at the building allow you to book tours of the actual site in Pennsylvania.

SSU's VDL reconstructs the famous Frank Lloyd Wright Fallingwaters summer home built for the Kaufmann family of Pittsburgh in 1935

The summer home is still in a virtual construction stage. The guest house section on the hill above hasn't been built yetbut you can walk through most of the house by the creekside. I am still working on finishing the interior trying to stay true to original look and furniture.
