Frank Lloyd Wright - Unity Temple - Damage to Ceiling

From Unity Temple Restoration Foundation. Video shows the ceiling above the organ loft, where plaster and concrete that were potential fall hazards have been removed. This has exposed the concrete roof slab, which has been damaged by 100 years of water infiltration. This can be fixed by replacing the aging and malfunctioning roof drainage system, replacing the concrete cladding on the wall that surrounds the temple skylight, and making repairs to the concrete slab. Unity Temple will mark the 100th anniversary of its dedication in 2009. To help support the restoration of Frank Lloyd Wright's Modern Masterpiece, please visit http://utrf.org/support.html.
