A Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home in Phoenix’s Arcadia neighborhood that has generated years of controversy will be donated to the Arizona Community Foundation for use by the architecture program at Taliesin West, its owner will announce today.
Backers of the high-profile project to restore and open the 1952 David and Gladys Wright House hope the move will end ongoing neighborhood concerns and create an accessible community space that will help define the character of Phoenix.
Zach Rawling and leaders of the School of Architecture at Taliesin will unveil plans for the house at a morning press conference. Today is the 150th anniversary of Frank Lloyd Wright’s birth.
“It’s my favorite place in the world,” Rawling said.
