The city is also home to [[Regency Mall (Racine)|Regency Mall]]. [[Frank Lloyd Wright]] designed and built the [[Johnson Wax Headquarters]] building in Racine. The building was and still is considered a marvel of design innovation, despite its many practical annoyances such as rainwater leaks. Wright urged then-president Hib Johnson to build the structure outside of Racine, a city that Wright, a Wisconsin native, thought of as "backwater." Johnson refused to have the Johnson Wax Headquarters sited anywhere other than Racine.{{Citation needed|date=December 2015}}
