The estate is on the high ridge that forms the northern edge of Georgetown. Dumbarton Oaks Park, which was separated from the formal gardens when it was given to the National Park Service, consists of 27.04 acres designed as the "naturalistic" component of a total composition which included the mansion and the formal gardens. The park is located north of and below the mansion and the terraced formal gardens and focuses on a stream valley sometimes called "The Branch" (i.e., of Rock Creek) nearly 100' below the mansion. North of the stream the park rises again in a northerly and westerly direction toward the U.S. Naval Observatory. The primary access to the park is from R Street between the Dumbarton Oaks estate and Montrose Park along a small lane presently called Lovers' Lane. Present Owner; Dumbarton Oaks Park is a Federal park, owned and maintained by the National Park Service of the Department of the Interior. Dates of Construction: Dumbarton Oaks estate was acquired by Robert Woods Bliss and Mildred Barnes Bliss in 1920. At their request, Beatrix Jones Farrand, a well- known American landscape architect, agreed to undertake the design and oversee the maintenance of the grounds.

Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1789, Lot 37 On June 24, 2008 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of New York Public Library 125th Street Branch; and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing was duly advertised according to provisions of law. Three witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives the New York Public Library, the Historic Districts Council, and the Municipal Art Society. Summary The 125th Street Branch of The New York Public Library is notable for being one of the Carnegie libraries and a significant Renaissance Revival style building by the important firm of McKim, Mead, & White. The library was the third Carnegie branch of The New York Public Library to open, and has served the Harlem community for more than one-hundred years. Made possible by a grant of $5.2 million from Andrew Carnegie to the City of New York to establish a city-wide branch library system, a total of 67 branch libraries were constructed between 1901 and 1929. Of those, 57 are still standing, and 54 are still in operation. The firm of McKim, Mead & White, one of the most notable and influential architecture firms in the country, designed twelve of The New York Public Library Carnegie Branches, and played a major part in the formulation of the libraries’ design guidelines.
