Frank Lloyd Wright Trust

What a fun little gym of a building (and gift shop). If you can’t make one of the daily tours just walk in to the atrium and read the panels about the history and Frank Lloyd Wright’s refurb of the building. Note the pricing in the trust gift shop was less than at the nearby museums (for the same items).

Really enjoyed the tour of the building, all the little details and stories were fantastic. The tour guide was knowledgeable and did a great job of providing just enough information to be interesting and engaging, but not so much that it was overwhelming. The gift shop was decent too.

This is an interesting and not very long tour as there are not any rooms to explore but it does take you up the stairs to view the openness and architecture.

I had a fantastic visit and tour in The Rookery. A must for all fans of architectural beauty and history of Chicago.

This building has so much history and is a must see for architecture lovers! Honestly, even if you don't care too much about buildings, consider taking a visit. While the exterior seems quite humble, the interior is absolutely exquisite!

Good gift shop! Beautiful building inside and out!

Guided tour available on weekdays. Friendly guides and shop staff.

Wright Plus organizes a yearly house walk that lets you through select rooms at select private residences for about a $100 price during one weekend every summer. It's a great event, though lately the tour seems a little more limited in the rooms you are allowed to see. This is understandable as it really is up to the family who owns the place. The money goes to the charity for preservation of the buildings so that is good. Kids from the neighborhood set up lemonade stands along the way so make it worth their time, and spend the fifty cents! the main cluster of homes is usually a decent walk away from the solitary homes on side streets, so I recommend starting far and working your way closer. You'll really need to spend all day to see everything. Parking is a problem so take the CTA if you can.
