Cooter's Preservation Alley-- Frank Lloyd Wright Building gets $80,000

Frank Lloyd Wright's Unity Temple in Oak Park, Illinois, recently received an $80,000 grant from American Express' Partners in Preservation program. A month-long online vote was taken for 25 nominated sites in the Chicagoland area.

The Pui Tak Center in Chicago's Chinatown was the top vote-getter and received the full amount of their request, $110,000.

Unity Temple ended up in the top ten. All sites after first place received some money, the bottom ten getting $5000 each. Unity Temple received $80,000 of the $150,00 it wanted. The money will be used to repair the roof draining system which has 19 different levels and has always been a major problem.

Some More Good News. --RoadDog
