Arizona - But It's a Dry Heat!


If you look beyond the bushes, the palm trees, the trees, and the grassy hill, right on top you'll see the Wrigley Mansion.

Excuse me sir? But do you know the background on the Wrigley Mansion?
The Wrigley Mansion was built by chewing gum magnate, William Wrigley, Jr., as a 50th wedding anniversary gift for his wife Ada. They named it La Colina Solana," the sunny hill.

The Wrigleys' "winter cottage" was the smallest Wrigley house, covering 16,850 square feet, with 24 rooms and 17 bathrooms.

The Wrigley Mansion is required to operate as a private club because of zoning restrictions, but to allow everyone to enjoy it, the annual dues are only $10.00, which is donated to local charities. The dues can be paid in advance or at the door.

The Wrigley Mansion is located on a hill just above the Arizona Biltmore, and they offer tours twice a day Tuesday through Friday.


As a side note, this is where we had our company Christmas Party last year.
