John Lloyd Wright
John Lloyd Wright became estranged from his father in 1909 and subsequently left his home to join his brother on the West Coast.The most successful of these inventions was Lincoln Logs in 1916, which would later be one of the original inductees into the National Toy Hall of Fame.After marrying a third time in 1946, Wright left Indiana for Del Mar, California, where he spent the rest of his life designing houses.Pleased with the results, Albright gave Wright the opportunity to design the Workingman's Hotel, a three-story building.He used his own funds to bring the idea to market in 1918 as the Red Square Toy Company (so named after his father's famous symbol).In 1920, John and Jeanette divorced; Wright moved back to the Oak Park studio with his mother.John sought out his father's former employer, Louis Sullivan, and had a series of conversations which inspired him to practice architecture again.Because Long Beach was populated with wealthy vacationers, Wright was able to receive a steady stream of commissions during the Great Depression.Wright received two Works Progress Administration commissions during the depression, including the Arcade Cabins Hotel in Indiana Dunes State Park.Wright did manage to receive a commission to design two buildings for the Kingsbury Ordnance Plant 20 miles south of Long Beach.
