The Charles Gates Mansion: Lost Treasure

A Talk with Local Historian Bob Glancy

Wednesday, September 21st, 7-8pm

Minneapolis Central Library, RKMC Meeting Room, 2nd Floor

This 38,000 square foot Renaissance Revival "palace", constructed for barbed wire mogul Charles Gates, was perhaps the largest mansion ever built in Minneapolis. Said to have the first residential use of air conditioning in the state of Minnesota, it also cost a whopping $60,000 per year just to maintain. The mansion was completed in 1913 and was a symbol of Minneapolis' Guilded Age. Gates never lived to see its completion and when the Great Depression came, the house had no buyers and was demolished. Join us for a presentation by local architectural historian Bob Glancy as he tells the tale of this amazing structure.

In the Twin Cities’ long—and not always uplifting—annals of mansion-building, the Charles G. Gates House occupies its own special realm of folly. Built by the playboy son of notorious stock-plunger John “Bet-a-Million” Gates, the mansion, located at 2501 Lake of the Isles Parkway East, was the largest private residence in the history of Minneapolis. Resembling an Italian Renaissance-era palace, the house offered 38,000 square feet of over-the-top luxury, including a ballroom big enough for a marching band, an 80-foot-long central gallery, two elevators and all the lavish accoutrements (marble floors, bronze doorknobs, alabaster chandeliers, a pipe organ) that money could buy. It even had central air-conditioning, possibly the first such installation in a house anywhere. Despite its grandeur, the mansion had a distressingly short life, as did its owner.
