18 x 44.5 inch original blueprint on off-white drawing paper showing the arches of paned glass from across the water's perspective of the Monona Terrace in Madison, Wisconsin. Wright originally proposed his design for Monona Terrace in 1938, as a municipal office building, however, local politics prevented the building's construction until 1997, as a convention center.  The convention center features Wright's original design for the exterior, with a resigned interior by Wright's apprentice Tony Puttnam.
