SC Johnson Chairman and CEO Fisk Johnson, together with Gov. Scott Walker and the Wisconsin Department of Tourism, recently dedicated the Frank Lloyd Wright Trail in the Great Workroom at the SCJ’s Wright-designed administration building. The building, which opened in 1939, is the first stop on the trail and the only remaining operational corporate HQ that Wright designed.
“In 1936, my grandfather’s bold decision to choose Frank Lloyd Wright to design the company’s new administration building was an early visible sign of the company’s commitment to excellence and innovation, two values of the highest importance to both SC Johnson and Wright himself,” said Johnson.
“Frank Lloyd Wright was an interesting and colorful man and his presence in Wisconsin makes our state more colorful and interesting, too. That’s why it’s great to have the new Frank Lloyd Wright Trail, which recognizes his genius that lives still today in Wisconsin,” he continued.
SC Johnson’s 2017 campus summer tour season is underway; there is a 1.5-hour tour offered to the public free of charge Thursday through Sunday.
