LEGO_Set_21005_Fallingwater_1_by_AndrewDBarker.jpg

Fallingwater, also known as the Edgar J. Kaufmann Sr. Residence, is a house designed by American architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1934 in rural southwestern Pennsylvania, 50 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. The house was built partly over a waterfall in Bear Run at Rural Route 1 in the Mill Run section of Stewart Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, in the Laurel Highlands of the Allegheny Mountains.

The LEGO set contains 811 pieces.

The LEGO set is now considered "Hard To Find" on the LEGO website, as well.

It retails for 99.99$.

(As it is a collectors item it's more expensive than the regular 10? per brick that usually is associated with LEGO sets.)

I lucked out and got it for 86.99$.

I may mention, that this is one of my most wanted sets ofall> time.

To commemorate this, I've changed my wallpaper on my PC to Fallingwater as well.

I am absolutely ecstatic that I found it to have found it today.

Congrats Andrew!

So, does this mean you're going to open it, and build it? Or are you not opening it?

I'm building it right now, live on Webcam.. : http://www.ustream.tv/channel/minifigs-gaming-channel

Nice find Minifig :) I don't know much about Lego but it sounds like this is pretty hard to find so it must be a feat. Are there any other rare sets you're looking for now?

I actually have something on my christmas list (related to LEGO) that's on ebay for 49.95 plus shipping, if you're interested in helping me, let me know.

Looks like an awesome set! Will you post pics when done? :)

I will be posting pictures every 10 "set" pages.

Does buying this come with a pull-out bed to put in your parent's basement?

I live in my own house, thank you for trying to insult me though. :happy:

I would also like to refer to http://brickartist.com/, Nathan Sawaya is 36 years old, owns the largest private collection of LEGO in the world, and makes a living as a brick artist.

Next time you think people live in their parents basement because they play with toys, think before you type.

It was a joke, not an insult. Calm down. It was meant in jest.

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 changelog: Uses electron 42.5.0 #2452 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.6.
