Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sol Friedman House Toyhill, was built in Pleasantville, New York in 1948. This was the first of the three Frank Lloyd Wright homes built in the "Usonia Homes" development north of New York City. The Friedman House forms part of the post-war development of Wright''s use of the circle, culminating in his Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan. The Sol Friedman house in Pleasantville, N.Y., is roofed with mushroom-like concrete slabs; the two intersecting closed circles of the actual dwelling are balanced at the end of a straight terrace parapet by the mushroom-shaped carport. This house was completed in 1949 with battered (sloped) walls of almost Richardsonian random ashlar masonry below a strip of metal-framed windows. Wright dubbed the house Toyhill because Sol Friedman was a prolific inventor of several well known toys including Operation Orbit and Johnny Astro. Many of Friedman''s toys were sold under the Topper Toys brand, which were manufactured by Deluxe Reading. Sol Friedman died in 1997.
