Massaro House is a U.S. residence inspired by designs of a never-constructed project conceived by the architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It is located on the privately owned Petre Island (sometimes spelled Petra Island) in Lake Mahopac, New York, and is named for its owner, Joseph Massaro. ==The original plans== In 1949, architect Frank Lloyd Wright received a commission from an engineer named A. K. Chahroudi to build a house on the Petre Island, which Chahroudi owned. Chahroudi would later state that during a lunch meeting he had with Wright and Edgar Kaufmann, the owner of Wright’s celebrated Fallingwater, the architect told Kaufmann: "When I finish the house on the island, it will surpass your Fallingwater".〔(“This is his finest work,’ The Guardian, August 28, 2006 )〕 Wright worked on designing a one-story, house for three months, but the project was cancelled when Chahroudi realized he was not able to afford the $50,000 budget that Wright envisioned for the project, nor a second more modest version requested of Wright.〔 Instead, Wright designed a cottage for Chahroudi for the island.〔("Do The Wright Thing", Alternative Energy Retailer, August 2007 )〕
