Gridley Short Sale

6a00d8341bf72a53ef017ee8683d79970d-800wiChicagomag.com reports that the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Gridley House in Batavia, IL sold this last November as a short sale (less than was owed on the mortgage) for $850,000. The sellers had paid $980,000 for the house in 2004 and listed it in January 2009 at $1.575 million. Ironically, the original owner, Mrs. A.W. Gridley had to sell the house over 100 years ago to a windmill manufacturer because of financial difficulties after living there for only six years. Read more here.

I've always enjoyed PeterBeers FLW Roadtrip site but there haven't been any updates in years. Does anyone know what happened or if there might be another link?
