I visited it many years ago (at least 45 years) and it was before it's foundation had to be shored up, but it was a great tour. To see a great architect's concept come to life in a living space. Because of it's location over a waterfall, there were some geological problems in the foundation over time and it was closed temporarily while the foundation was repaired. Although I would love to see it again, I would love to see some of his other homes too.
