76 Soldiers Pl
Buffalo, NY 14222

The William R. Heath House, located at 76 Soldiers Place in Buffalo, New York, was designed by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright and constructed in 1904-1905 in the Prairie style. Situated on a deep, narrow lot alongside Bird Avenue, the house features banded ribbon casement windows, a stucco exterior, and a low-pitched hipped roof, showcasing Wright's characteristic open structure.

Commissioned by lawyer William Heath, the house's design prioritizes privacy while still drawing attention with its splendid window patterns and unique screening mechanisms. Considered a precursor to Wright's famous Robie House in Chicago, the Heath House exemplifies Wright's innovative approach to architecture and his ability to create harmonious living spaces within challenging urban settings.
