Restoring the SC Johnson Tower



Restoring the SC Johnson Tower








Our friend, photographer Mark Hertzberg, who took some wonderful photos of Graycliff a few years ago, has a photo essay on the massive restoration of the SC Johnson Tower designed by Frank Lloyd Wright that is underway.  Although the tower has been closed for years (wonderful design aesthetically, not so practical any longer for research,) its going to re-open for tours next year.

Take a look here:

The SC Johnson Company, which is still owned by the Johnson family,  has been maintaining the tower for many years...rather than tearing it down.  .It's why I buy Johnson and Johnson products...love those baggies....
