S.023 – Francis Wooley (Woolley) Residence, 1030 Superior Street, Oak Park, Illinois MAP Francis Woolley was an attorney. Wright – not always the best at getting his customers’ names right – spelled this one with only one “L” (Wooley). The house has been restored to more of its original design, with clapboard replacing artificial brick. It is near the FLW Home & Studio, but is probably missed by many tourists since it lacks the later prairie style. Although it is reported that son Taylor worked as a draftsman for Wright at a later date, it appears Taylor was not Francis’s son (see the biography on Wikipedia, which reports Taylor’s father as Taylor Woolley). Photographed on August 30, 2009. Project number: T.9405
