TheWrigley Mansion inPhoenix, Arizona, is a landmark building constructed between 1929 and 1931 by chewing-gum magnateWilliam Wrigley Jr. It is also known asWilliam Wrigley Jr. Winter Cottage and asLa Colina Solana.
Located at 2501 East Telewa Trail,[1] it sits atop a 100-foot (30 m) knoll with views of greater Phoenix to the south, close to theArizona Biltmore Hotel, which Wrigley owned.
Architect Earl Heitschmidt of Los Angeles designed the home at a cost of $1.2 million, in a combination of styles, includingSpanish Colonial. The William Simpson Construction Company also of Los Angeles built the home.[2] It has 24 rooms, 12 bathrooms, and over 16,000 square feet (1,500 m2). Much of the extensive tilework was shipped to Phoenix from Wrigley's own factory in Catalina, hauled by mule to the site.
The Wrigleys maintained other residences inChicago;Philadelphia;Lake Geneva, Wisconsin;Catalina Island; andPasadena, and used this, the smallest of their houses, for only a few weeks a year. William Wrigley died in 1932, shortly after its completion.
The Wrigley Mansion in Pasadena was donated to the City of Pasadena by Mrs. Wrigley for the use of thePasadena Tournament of Roses Association as its offices. The association is the producer of the annualRose Parade andRose Bowl games.
In July 1992,Geordie Hormel bought the mansion and made it available for meetings, conventions and similar functions. Due to zoning regulation, The Wrigley Mansion must operate as a private club.[citation needed]
The Wrigley Mansion was listed on theNational Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
