Rockford's only Frank Lloyd Wright home up for auction

 

A small, yet significant, home goes up for auction next week in Rockford…and a group of preservationists is racing to come up with the money to ensure it becomes a community centerpiece. WNIJ’s Susan Stephens has more on the house Frank Lloyd Wright called his “little gem.”

Donations can be made by contacting the Laurent House Foundation at 815-489-1678 or info@laurenthouse.com. A member of the group will get back to you within 24 hours.  The auction takes place December 15th at 4:00 pm in Chicago.
