Correct - well done! It isn't mentioned as one of Wright's works because it wasn't finished by him.

The reason why it looks so small is because I only uploaded pictures of a small portion of it. All the others just weren't worth sharing.

The shape was made to blend in with the environment; subtle against nature, but an astonishingly loud statement against its simple all-white mcmansion neighbors.
