HERITAGE HILL.   Designed by the renowned Frank Lloyd Wright, this beautiful Prairie-style structure was once the home of Meyer May, founder of May's, a Michigan department store chain. The home blends gracefully with its setting, and its contemporary design features a Spanish tile roof with low pitches and wide eaves, a yellow brick exterior, built-in planters, and a myriad of Wright-esque right angles. In 1985, the home underwent one of the most complete restorations of any Wright home.   (© 10Best)

to the author-- you have some misinfo here. Such as, the morter in the living room fireplace has glazed glass, not gold gilt, the room off the master bedroom is the morning room, and the room to the north of the maid's room is the trunk room. (as in steamer trunk storage) Otherwise, nice photos! p.s. I've been a docent there since 1990.
