Description

In the early 1900s; Frank Lloyd Wright transformed a small midwestern prairie community into one of the world�s most important architectural destinations. Mason City; Iowa; became home to his City National Bank and Park Inn�the last surviving Wright hotel. In addition; his prototype Stockman House helped launch the Prairie School architectural style. Soon after; architect Walter Burley Griffin followed in Wright�s footsteps; designing a cluster of Prairie School homes in the Rock Crest/Rock Glen neighborhood. Design historian Roy Behrens leads the way through Mason City�s historic development from the Industrial Revolution to the modern era of Frank Lloyd Wright.
