In Summer 2008, the First Unitarian Society of Madison completed a new addition to its Frank Lloyd Wright-designed National Historic Landmark Meeting House. As stewards of this historic building, the congregation wished to maintain the integrity of Wright’s design, provide space for expanded daily needs, and align construction with its deeply-held environmental values.



This booklet was created as an educational tool for the First Unitarian Society congregation, and as a guide for visitors coming from around the world to see the historic Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Meeting House. The booklet is organized according to the USGBC LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating system and provides a comprehensive summary of the sustainable strategies and technologies employed in the design of this new 20,000 square foot addition to the historic structure.
