EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1921, showcases the elegant "Jones Wood" townhouses located on East 65th and East 66th Streets between Lexington and Third Avenues in New York City. Designed by John B. Snook in the late 19th century, these twelve townhouses underwent a significant remodeling in 1919 under the guidance of architects Edward Shepard Hewitt and William Emerson. The exteriors of these historic residences are adorned with intricate details, showcasing the grandeur of the era. The landscape design, also by Hewitt and Emerson, is a harmonious blend of nature and architecture. The lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and outdoor furniture create a serene and inviting atmosphere. The backyards, originally known as "Gerry Gardens," offer a tranquil escape from the bustling city. The image captures the essence of the 1910s and 1920s, with a folding deck chair and a lantern adding a touch of the era's charm. The garden design boasts a diverse range of plants, sculptures, and a beautiful stairway leading to the upper levels. The use of color and light in this hand-colored lantern slide further enhances the image's visual appeal. This photograph is a testament to the rich architectural and gardening heritage of New York City, showcasing the timeless beauty of these townhouses and their gardens.
