Howard Anthony Residence - Frank Lloyd Wright
1150 Miami Road, Benton Harbor, MI 49022
About the Business
The Howard Anthony Residence, designed by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright, is located at 1150 Miami Road in Benton Harbor, Michigan. This unique home is one of three Wright homes built in the twin cities of St. Joseph–Benton Harbor within a short period of time, taking advantage of the beautiful views of the St. Joseph River and Lake Michigan.
Built for Howard Anthony, the inventor of the Heathkit which later became the Heath Company, this cypress and sandstone house sits at the head of a wooded ravine on a bluff overlooking the St. Joseph River. The design of the house is based on diamond-patterned modules, with a prominent chimney anchoring the building to its site and a low roof with generous overhanging eaves giving it a floating appearance.
Wright, knowing Anthony's love for bird-watching, provided a balcony and windows overlooking the ravine. The Howard Anthony Residence is a prime example of Wright's later work in Michigan, showcasing his innovative architectural style and attention to detail.
For those interested in architectural history and the built environment, the Howard Anthony Residence is a must-see landmark in Benton Harbor. Visit SAH Archipedia for more information on this and other significant buildings in the United States.
