High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Robert M. Lamp House (1903) is a residence at 22 N. Butler Street in Madison, Wisconsin, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for "Robie" Lamp (1866–1916), a realtor, insurance agent, and Madison City Treasurer. Lamp resided here with his parents and an aunt until their passing, and later with his wife and stepson. He selected this location one and a half blocks east of the Capitol Square because of its proximity to his office on Pinckney Street. He sometimes walked to work, but because of a withered leg he used crutches and canes, and he usually drove to work. Boyhood friends, Wright and Lamp shared a June 8 birthday, though they were born one year apart, and they remained close until Lamp`s premature death at age 49. From early on, Wright called Lamp "Pinky" or "Ruby" because of his red hair, and he also used these nicknames for the youngest of his four sons, David Wright.
