Mid-Century Modern in Mason City, Iowa

Mason_city_white 

As promised, in 2009 I will begin to share the photos I have been taking of mid-century modern homes in the Midwest.  When we were "looking" at our Moline house from California, I was frustrated by the lack of online images and information on the flat-roofed MCM homes.

As we have traveled throughout the Midwest over the past two years, my camera has been clicking away.  Mostly flat-roofed examples, but also a few Frank Lloyd Wright structures, and some homes by Wright students.

The photos above and below were taken in a Mason City, Iowa neighborhood brimming with MCM homes: a residential time warp.

Coming soon, a really cool Wright Usonian in Iowa.
