No word on whether he determined their style as well, but no matter who the progenitor, this graceful house originally built for one of the heirs of the Proctor & Gamble fortune remains one of the best examples of their work. However you decide to experience it, don’t miss the remarkable zig-zag staircase, a joyous element that adds a bit of fun to the perfection of the house. This 1921, Mayan-inflected Frank Lloyd Wright house was originally built as a “progressive theatrical community” space by activist and oil heiress Aline Barnsdall. Today it’s the centerpiece of Barnsdall Park and is open for tours during the park’s popular Friday night wine tasting events. Master woodworker Sam Maloof and his carpenters designed and built this lovely, thoughtful home piece by piece in his on-site workshop; no two door openings are the same here, and each joint is a wonder of craftsmanship.
The new owners plan to turn a historic, ‘ugly-on-the-outside’ building into an old-school bar.

Katy's Happy Hour
“This is really to ensure that the Ice House [in Uptown] will always have plenty of parking.” They’ll get an extra 80 spaces out of it.

According to Buddy Cramer, owner of the Katy Trail Ice House, the restaurant will take up half of a 10-acre plot located along the Rowlett Creek Trail, near 121 and Custer Road. Tasty food (although pricey for what you’re getting) and the atmosphere is unmatched.
It will have a bit of a honky tonk feel, Cramer says, with shuffleboard tables and a jukebox. It felt like it was a snowstorm of cotton wood while eating. I'd recommend skipping outdoor dining from April to May.Portion size on onion rings is just three pieces...

Best of Allen Winners!
Dallas’ popular backyard bar Katy Trail Ice House is expanding to Allen. Remember the line from Sweet Home Alabama where Reese Witherspoon's character returns to her hometown and is appalled upon seeing a former friend bring her baby to a bar? After you've exhausted that line in your head a few times, the casual vibe of the Ice House comes over you, and instead of wishing the babies were at home with a sitter, you begin to think, Cool, I wish my parents had brought me to a bar when I was a baby.
Katy Trail Ice House anchors the development and will span 6 acres. The vine-covered, villa-inspired home is located down a quarter-mile-long driveway behind an imposing gate and is surrounded by a lush lawn with an infinity pool, outdoor lounge area and dining terrace. Photos also show a kids' treehouse and swing in the backyard, which has canyon views. The society that runs it certainly wants us to think so—haunted house tours and a popular interactive play capitalize on the 1929 scandal in which the owner of the mansion, oil heir Ned Doheny, died in a mysterious murder-suicide with his boyhood friend and employee. Doheny’s father was mired in the Teacup Dome Scandal at the time, and the deaths meant that he was excused from testifying; rumors also abounded that Ned, who was married with children, was trying to cover up a same-sex affair. Either way, a tour of this 55-room Tudor estate is a good way to get a glimpse into the lives of LA’s historical 1%—costly slate clads the façade and walkways, the windows are leaded glass and guests were entertained in the bowling alley and two movie theaters.
