The Tragic (and sometimes comedic) Deaths of Famous Architects

louis kahn - suffered a heart attack in a train station toilet leaving behind a wife, 2 mistresses and many many children.
mrs aalto #1 - no details just yet. anybody wish to share info?
scarpa - "died from a fall in japan" according to linda's book. specifically, he backed off the scaffolding of one of his buildings and died. poor mister scarpa.
