The rebuilding of Baghdad continues and one of the places to be rebuilt is a place called Baghdad Island. Originally built in the 1980s and patterned after Frank Lloyd Wright's designs, the site was a popular destination for weddings and other celebrations before it was destroyed in the invasion. I had no idea something was actually built in Iraq (loosely) based on Wright's design! If anyone has any more info about this, please let us know! Read more here.
