2 unusual facts about Polymath Park


Polymath Park

Built in 1957 in Lisle, Illinois for Donald and Elizabeth Duncan, Wright's prefab Usonian was deconstructed in suburban Chicago in 2004 and reassembled in Pennsylvania.

The site, near the village of Acme in Westmoreland County, is surrounded by private forest in the Allegheny Mountains and features three architectural landmarks: Frank Lloyd Wright's (1867–1959) Donald C. Duncan House and two others by Peter Berndtson (1909–1972), who was one of the original Wright apprentices.
