Parabiographies entry, by William Gray Purcell
Research Notes
Harry D. Page selected Walter Burley Griffin
as architect for his new home, located at 21 S. Rock Glen, Mason City, Iowa. A
great irony would unfold as the Griffins left for Australia after winning the
Australian Parliament Buildings Competition in 1914,
which P&E also entered. Griffin asked Purcell to look after his ongoing work
in the United States.
