Early concrete designs were also favored by architects Auguste Perret in France (elegant apartments and the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées) and Frank Lloyd Wright in the US. Wright’s most famous interwar concrete designs were Tokyo’s Imperial Hotel, finished just before the 1923 earthquake leveled the city and damaged the new structure, and Fallingwater in Pennsylvania, completed in 1939. The Guggenheim Museum in New York was his last famous concrete design, completed in 1959.[90]
