Review:
Fallingwater , also known as the Kaufmann Residence, is one of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright's crowning achievements, located just 45 minutes southeast of Pittsburgh in Fayette County.
The stunning residence was created as a weekend home for Lillian and Edgar Kaufmann of the Kaufmann's department store chain and is known for its unique cantilevered design directly above a waterfall landscape.
Since 1963, the designated National Historic Landmark home has been open to the public as a living history museum, offering guided tours throughout the year.
Today, it is considered to be one of the top examples of 20th-century American architecture in the world, named as the greatest American work of all time by the American Institute of Architects.
Visitors can explore the home's 5,330-square-foot main house, which is known for its extensive outdoor terraces, or dine at the delicious Fallingwater Cafe, located within the estate's Visitor Center. Landscape hikes of nearby Bear Run are also offered throughout the year, along with a lecture series and summer concert series.
