Frank Lloyd Wright has been praised and blamed for endorsing the American suburban ideal of distinctive single-family houses in bucolic landscapes. In fact, he advocated compact residential settlements throughout his career, although only a few were even partially realized. The most innovative design was a Model Suburb on the outskirts of Chicago for a 1913 competition. He went beyond the program to propose mixed incomes (including apartments near mass transit for single men and women) and a mixed-use greensward woven through the center (including a women's club, a kindergarten, a library and a cinema) to bring people together. This little known proposal situates him within Chicago's progressive reform movement of the time, even as it offers precedents for contemporary architecture's interest in landscape urbanism, community facilities, density and transit-based suburbs.
