When Westhope, the midtown Tulsa, Oklahoma, residence designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright, was offered for sale last year, it was priced at almost $8 million.
Frank Lloyd Wright designed Westhope at 3704 S. Birmingham Ave. for his cousin, Tulsa Tribune publisher Richard Lloyd Jones. It cost more than $100,000 to finish construction in 1931, even though Jones’ original budget was $40,000.
The Price family, which owns the Philcade Building and First Place Tower downtown, took great efforts to preserve the home while also making it suitable for modern living.
Frank Lloyd Wright built only two other structures in Oklahoma — the Harold Price Jr. House and the 19-story Price Tower, both finished in the 1950s in Bartlesville.
The current listing of the house on the real estate website Zillow indicates the price was reduced March 19 for the five-bedroom, five-bath, 10,405-square-foot home.
