ABOUT YOUR VISIT TO PETRA ISLAND, MAHOPAC, NY

This one of a kind tour includes guided access to both the Chahroudi House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright as the guest cottage for the later built, Massaro House.  Wright was commissioned by the Chahroudi family and asked to build his masterpiece, with no financial restraint.  After experiencing some issues with the town, the Chahroudi’s convinced Wright to design the guest cottage, which would be built first, while FLW was alive to approve it,  and the main home to be built later. The Massaro House is one of FLW’s only design that was built after his death, on the exact location it was intended for.
