The Brooks Family was one of the most distinguished and prominent families in Medford for almost 300 years. Governor John Brooks (1752-1825), served as Governor 1816-23 after fighting in the Revolution. Peter Chardon Brooks I – Massachusetts’ first millionaire (1767-1849); made his fortune in marine insurance in Boston. Charles Francis Adams (son of President John Adams) married Abigail Brooks at the Brooks Estate. Shepherd and Peter Chardon Brooks developed their Victorian Estates (1859-1933). Shepherd Brooks married Clara Gardner, niece of Isabella Stewart Gardner. Brooks Family generosity in Medford includes giving land for the original Brooks School, much of the land along the Mystic Lakes, the park along Grove Street and for H.H. Richardson- designed Grace Episcopal Church on High Street. Manor Use Designed as a summer home for the Brooks Family; the Brooks Family stayed at the Manor from Memorial Day to Thanksgiving before returning to Boston for the winter. The Estate was a self-sufficient working farm with horses, pigs, hens, all that was necessary to be self-sufficient in terms of food for the Estate. Seven full-time female servants worked in the Manor and lived on the third floor and part of the second floor. These young women had unique responsibilities in the Manor: cooking, cleaning, taking care of the children, dining room, laundry, and Mrs. Brooks' personal servant. A half-dozen young men worked the farm seasonally with a full-time grounds caretaker and two chauffeurs. The young boys were often Irish immigrants fresh off the boats in Boston. The Manor was built on Acorn Hill, an undeveloped part of the Brooks' family ancestral land, which they had owned for more than 200 years when the Manor was built. The Manor was a companion piece to the Peter Chardon Brooks Estate mansion, Point of Rocks, which was an Italianate stone mansion built in 1859 and destroyed in 1946. Appendix - Page 2 Brooks Estate Master Plan - Appendix Medford-Brooks Estate Land Trust 1 September 2011 Shepherd Brooks Manor - Timeline 1880 – Shepherd Brooks Manor is constructed. 1883 – 1889 – Brooks Pond is constructed from a marshy area south of the Manor. 1881 – 1939 - The Brooks Family use the Estate as their summer home. 1900 – Additional second floor room is added over porte-cochere; new storage rooms are added on first floor north end of the Manor; modifications are made to the Carriage House. 1900 – The “Hamlet”, a large wood framed bungalow, is constructed east of the Manor for Shepherd’s son Gorham and his college friends; later it was used as a caretaker’s residence. 1922 – Shepherd Brooks dies. 1939 – Clara Gardner Brooks dies. 1941 – Brooks children sell Winchester Woods portion of Brooks Estates to Town of Winchester. 1942 – Brooks children sell remains of Peter Chardon and Shepherd Brooks Estate to City of Medford, eighty-two acres of land including the Peter Chardon Brooks “Point of Rocks” Mansion and the Shepherd Brooks Manor. 1942-1946 – The Peter Chardon Brooks Mansion is abandoned and vandalized for parts. 1946 – Peter Chardon Brooks Mansion is destroyed by the City of Medford. 1946 – 1954 - Ten World War II Veterans’ families move into the Manor as part of two-hundred family Brooks Village development on the Estate; The Manor is saved only because it is easily converted to one-room apartments. None of the temporary housing is extant; it was all removed and later developed as cemetery lots. 1956 – 1977 - Manor is used as a city nursing home. 1980 – 1985 - Manor is used as a group home for physically challenged adults (Dorothy Hegner Center). 1991 – 1998 – Various caretakers live at the Manor. 1997 – Brooks Estate and Shepherd Brooks Manor receive permanent protection with the passage of the Conservation and Preservation Restriction. 1998 – Brooks Estate Rededication on May 5 includes Shepherd Brooks II, grandson of the Manor’s builder and namesake. 1998 – M-BELT Board holds its first meeting on November 4. 1999 – present – M-BELT-selected caretakers occupy the Manor. 1999 – 2002 - Two-phase Manor roof restoration is completed with funds from the State of Massachusetts PPF Grant Program, federal CDBG money and M-BELT funds. 2000 – 2001 - A Landscape and Vegetation Plan for the entire Brooks Estate is developed and approved by the Trustees of Reservations. 2000-2001 – A Master Plan for the Historic Core around the Shepherd Brooks Manor is completed. 2001 – Public tours of the Shepherd Brooks Manor begin. 2003 – Manor window restoration is completed – 70 windows with interior storms and functioning wood shutters. 2004 – New oil tanks are installed in Manor basement. 2005 – Chimney with 1880 date is restored to original height. 2007 – New ADA accessible toilet is built in storage room off first floor caretaker’s kitchen. 2009 – New boiler is completed in Manor basement. 2010 – Two-story west porch is restored. Appendix - Page 3 Brooks Estate Master Plan - Appendix Medford-Brooks Estate Land Trust 1 September 2011 A Tour of the Shepherd Brooks Manor The First Floor Rooms The Main Hall – Butternut wood panels The 10 foot wide wood-paneled main entrance hall runs the length of the house from the porte- cochere to the west porch. The hall was an appropriately scaled greeting space for visitors and family alike and provided access to the four major public rooms on the ground floor – the Parlor, the Library, the Dining Room and the Office. A beautifully carved butternut wood stair and balustrade dominates the hall, which has butternut wood wainscoting. The wood floors, like much of the Manor floors, are oak. The Parlor – Pine wood trim The parlor was the primary public room of the Manor. It was the room where the Brooks family greeted and entertained guests, and the adjacent outdoor verandah and south lawn allowed the space to literally spill outdoors and down to Brooks Pond, which was visible from the verandah. The projecting corner bay allowed family members to see approaching carriages coming up the hill drive. Like all of the major rooms in the Manor, the Parlor was equipped with a large fireplace, which Mrs. Brooks kept lit throughout their stay. Note that the mantel and trim designs of each fireplace are unique to each room. One of the interesting design features of the Shepherd Brooks Manor is that a different wood species was used in the different main rooms. The Parlor wood trim moldings are all pine, although this is the only major room that is completely painted. Appendix - Page 4 Brooks Estate Master Plan - Appendix Medford-Brooks Estate Land Trust 1 September 2011 The Library – Ash wood trim The Library is the only interior space in the Shepherd Brooks Manor depicted in a period photograph, from 1881, the first summer that the house was occupied. The attached photo gives a sense of the Victorian finishes and furniture that were typically found throughout the Manor – the rich patterned fabric, the throw mats and carpets on the floor, and the ornate gaslight fixtures hung from the ceiling medallions. The built-in glass-enclosed bookcases and drawers are in excellent condition. During the years 1946-1954, ten families of World War II veterans lived in the Shepherd Brooks Manor as part of the Brooks Village development. Each major room was converted into a single-room rental apartment. Note the apartment number on the door and the bathroom that was added in the corner of the room, as well as the hooks in the glass cabinets: they were used as closets. The books on the shelves are all from the 1930’s and 1940’s, leftovers from the Medford Public Library, probably from the Brooks Village era. The Dining Room – Cherry wood trim After the Parlor, the Dining Room was the most public space in the Manor. It once looked out across the rolling wooded hills towards the Peter Chardon Brooks Estate at Point of Rocks. The exquisitely carved cherry wood sideboard is the most elaborate and best-preserved artifact in the Manor. Note the nine-panel wood doors and the original door hardware. It is remarkable that a 130- year old house has so much of its original woodwork in a relatively undamaged, unpainted state.

  • Download Downtown Scranton Landmark Buildings and Historic
    Downtown Scranton Landmark Buildings and Historic Districts Introduction Historic preservation in Scranton arose from a grass-roots movement in the late 1970's in response to serious threats to the late nineteenth/early 20th century fabric of the city, including the most significant and defining landmarks. Initial responses were in protest of demolition, but the main emphasis was on education and the development of a sense of pride in Scranton's unique architectural expression of its industrial boomtown history. The Architectural Heritage Association (AHA), founded in 1978, worked with the Pennsylvania Historic and Museum Association to create the Lackawanna Avenue Historic District, with the intent of seeing the then decaying commercial district retained and revived. In the 80s and 90s, redevelopment came to Scranton, but with the mixed blessings to the National Park Service, who intended to create the Steamtown Historic Site, and the Steamtown Mall developers, who intended to demolish most of Lackawanna Avenue. Local politicians and the press were strongly in favor of building the mall, even though it meant moving out active businesses, gaining control of the properties, and destroying historic structures. The architectural firm involved in the demolition of part of the Lackawanna Avenue Historic District to build the mall in 1992 failed to follow the process for altering nationally registered historic properties. That failure allowed the AHA to file a lawsuit. After several years, the court issued mitigation avenues: the 500 block of Lackawanna Avenue would not be demolished or included in the mall, the Oppenheim and Samters Buildings would be adaptively developed as office structures, the AHA would receive a cash settlement to assist in future preservation advocacy, and the City was to appoint a preservation specialist and establish, by ordinance, a Historical and Architectural Review Board (HARB).

  • Renaissance Architecture
    CHICAGO SCHOOL & WORKS OF LOUIS SULLIVAN Lesson 6 INTRODUCTION TO CHICAGO SCHOOL The Chicago school was a style that developed as a result of the Great Fire of Chicago in 1871. Before the fire, buildings were built of huge amounts of stone, and could not be very high. Growing use of the elevator, and the steel skeleton, the buildings grew taller and taller. The steel structure also allowed windows to be made bigger. Architects were encouraged to build higher structures because of the escalating land prices Conscious of the possibilities of the new materials and structures they developed buildings in which: Isolated footing supported a skeleton of iron encased in masonry There were: fireproof floors, numerous fast elevators and gas light The traditional masonry wall became curtains, full of glass, supported by the metal skeleton The first skyscrapers were born. • Chicago's architecture is famous throughout the world and one style is referred to as the Chicago School. • The style is also known as Commercial style. In the history of architecture, the Chicago School was a school of architects active in Chicago at the turn of the 20th century. • They were among the first to promote the new technologies of steel-frame construction in commercial buildings, and developed a spatial aesthetic which co-evolved with, and then came to influence, parallel developments in European Modernism. • A "Second Chicago School" later emerged in the 1940s and 1970s which pioneered new building technologies and structural systems such as the tube-frame structure. • Some of the distinguishing features of the Chicago School are the use of steel-frame buildings with masonry cladding (usually terra cotta), allowing large plate-glass window areas and limiting the amount of exterior ornamentation.

  • Cleveland Architects Database
    Clevland Landmarks Commission Cleveland Architects Database The following is a listing of architects and master builders that have worked in Cleveland, from the 1820’s until the 1930’s. Discovering which architects designed certain buildings was determined by utilizing several sources, including the City of Cleveland Building Permits, and publications that included American Architect and Builder News, Inland Architect, Interstate Architect, the Ohio Architect and Builder, the Annals of Cleveland, the Plain Dealer, the Leader, the Press, Material Facts, the Bystander, and Cleveland Town Topics. The Cleveland Public Library card index for Architect’s in the Fine Arts Department was used. Books on Cleveland Architecture that were consulted included Cleveland Architecture 1876 – 1976, and the American Institute of Architects Guide to Cleveland Architecture were consulted. A catalogue of architectural drawings maintained by the Western Reserve Historical Society was consulted. The Cleveland Necrology file maintained by the Cleveland Public Library, the United States Census, and Cleveland City Directories were consulted in compiling this database. For the purposes of this database an architect was defined as anyone that called himself or herself as an architect. Robert Keiser compiled the Cleveland Architects as a hobby in after work hours over several years. This project terminates with 1930. Local building activity was severely curtailed by the Great Depression, and did not recover until the 1950’s. Many of the references in the database have
