SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New
York City. The Fallingwater home in southwestern Pennsylvania.
But a child's doghouse? Frank Lloyd Wright designed hundreds of
landmark buildings and homes during a prolific career that
spanned more than seven decades. But in what is widely
considered a first and only for the famed architect, Wright
indulged a young boy's humble request for a dog house in 1956
and sent him designs. Jim Berger, now 68, rebuilt the doghouse
last year using the original plans. It is featured in a
documentary film to be displayed starting this month. Wright
designed Berger's family's home in the Marin County town of San
Anselmo, prompting the then-12 years old Berger to ask his dad
if Wright would design a home for his black Labrador, Eddie.
