My new @kinlingrover listing...Timeless and idyllic, c.1930 "Tree Tops" (aka "Adelaide's Cottage), was once part of the Filene's Estate in Marstons Mills. Set on a cul de sac, this charm filled property includes 1.44 acres, 60' of private, sandy beach frontage on Mystic Lake, a boathouse, calming views and offered beautifully furnished. A haven from the daily grind. $495k #cottageforsale #cottageliving #capecodhomeforsale #lakehouse #lakefront #historichouse #waterview #privatebeach #oldcapecod #capecodlife #capecodhome #capecodcottage #vintagestyle #newenglandliving #vintagehome #oldhouselove #marstonsmills #preservationmatters #marstonsmillshistory #capecodhistory #lakefrontliving #shesellsseashells #hiddengem
Niagara Mohawk Building. 1930-32. Bley and Lyman.
I'm moving back into a regular rotation and, for now, moving on from Providence. I hope Liz Rochefort will forgive me. To make it up, I'm going to Syracuse, where I'll start with the Niagara Mohawk Building, a structure she said she loved. People, please follow @lizrochefort.
The Niagara Mohawk was built at the Art Deco era's zenith. Bley and Lyman, a Buffalo firm, made use of black Vitrolite glass, which sparkles in the daytime. The piers and ornament add verticality, which is accentuated by recessed spandrels. The building caught the attention of @atlasobscura, which opined that the Niagara Mohawk belonged in the same conversation as the Chrysler Building. Big but worthy praise.

Windcrest sits on the top of Missionary Ridge in Chattanooga and was designed by architect Samuel Patton. I got to tour this beauty when it went up for auction a few years ago and fell in love! ❤️My super talented friend is the designer on the home’s remodel. Drawing to come soon- because it’s too pretty not to :) •

According to the NR nomination the third floor of this home once had a roller skating rink and has eleven fireplaces.
American Friends of Italian Monumental Sculpture (AFIMS) sponsored the restoration of sculptor Luigi Brizzolara's dramatic #ArtNouveau #masterpiece, the Debarbieri Pozzo memorial, in 1917. This was 99 years after it was first unveiled at Staglieno Cemetery in Genoa in 1918. Check our profile for more on our work to preserve these wonderous works of art.
