The Causeway
EDITORS COMMENTS
at 3100 Macomb Street in Washington, D.C., as captured in this stunning photograph taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1919, offers a glimpse into the elegance and charm of a bygone era. The residence, designed by Charles Adams Platt in 1912, is the James Parmelee house, which was home to Alice Maury (Mrs. James) Parmelee. The overall plan for the landscape was created by Charles Adams Platt in 1912, with the gardens designed by Ellen Biddle Shipman in 1913. The photograph reveals the picturesque causeway, leading visitors through a series of gardens and past a charming drinking fountain, before revealing the stunning brick house nestled among the greenery. The intricately designed walled garden, with its winding pathways and lanterns, adds to the allure of this historic estate. The landscape architecture of the time, as seen in this image, showcases the importance of integrating buildings with their surroundings, creating a harmonious blend of nature and structure. This photograph, taken from the Library of Congress' collection, is a testament to the rich heritage of American architecture and horticulture during the 1910s. The James Parmelee house, now known as Tregaron, stands as a reminder of the beauty and elegance that can be found in the historic homes and gardens of Washington, D.C. The causeway, with its serene atmosphere and tranquil surroundings, continues to captivate visitors and inspire appreciation for the past.
