Frank Lloyd Wright's Boynton House: The Next Hundred Years

Frank Lloyd Wright's Boynton House: The Next Hundred Years, WXXI's new documentary premiering early Fall 2012, spotlights the restoration of Rochester’s only Frank Lloyd Wright house on East Boulevard.

Viewers will learn how the owners Fran Cosentino and his wife Jane Parker acquired Frank Lloyd Wright’s Boynton House, and how they are working to restore it to its original beauty using materials and processes that Wright himself intended. The history of the house, and that of its original owner Mr. Edward Boynton are told by many experts including Jean France, Boynton Historian and Architectural Scholar; Carol Boynton-Atwood, Descendent of the Boynton Family; Eric Norden, owner of Eric Norden Restorations; and John E. Page, owner of Bero Architecture. The Landmark Society’s Executive Director Wayne Goodman also talks about the importance of preserving this national treasure.

In December 2011, WXXI created a special preview presentation showcasing the project. To see a trailer from that presentation, click on the video box to the right.
