The early 19th century NHL Meason Mansion in western PA (same county as
Fallingwater) is up for sale on Ebay. This wonderful stone house is to
be dismanteled and moved. Sounds like a lot of personal crap has gone
on between the owners and neighbors resulting in poor attitudes and bad
manners. Only two weeks left for bidding on what may become a heap of
outrageously nice stonework..

A good article on the background can be found at:

Think the house could be taken down, moved, and reerected every year at
the site of the IPTW?
