The Martin House Restoration in Buffalo, New York, is the restoration and preservation of the former home of prominent architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Located on the city's east side, the restoration site covers 6.5 acres of land and includes the Martin House Complex, consisting of the main house and four outbuildings, including a conservatory.

The Martin House was originally built between 1903 and 1905 and is one of the most important examples of Wright's work. It was designed to be an integrated and unified work of art, with its distinct Prairie School style and use of natural materials, such as brick, wood, and stone.

The restoration project began in 1992 and is being carried out by the Martin House Restoration Corporation. The goal of the project is to restore the complex to its original condition, as designed and intended by Wright. To achieve this, the Corporation is using only original and compatible materials and techniques, and is implementing the latest conservation treatments.

The project also includes educational and interpretive components, such as guided tours and educational programs, to better understand and appreciate Wright and his vision. Other features include a museum shop, a café, and a research and education center.

The Martin House Restoration is a significant and inspiring project, and has become a key part of the local and national cultural landscape. It is a testament to the power of preservation and the importance of maintaining our nation's architectural heritage.
