Frank Lloyd Wright & Crystal City

I came across an interesting piece on a plan that had Frank Lloyd Wright designing a very different Crystal City.

Why we’re all better off because Frank Lloyd Wright’s Crystal City was never built

While many of his buildings do indeed look great and leave a lasting impact on the environment they are built in, they don’t always add to the community who engage with them daily. Couldn’t agree more that Crystal City, while currently not a very livable space, is much better off not using his design for the neighborhood.

And in more recent news, the Arlington County Board approved a framework on how the area will redevelop after the BRAC is complete.
