Henderson House (Weston, Massachusetts)

The Henderson House, also known as the Edward Peirce House, is a historic house at 99 Westcliff Road in Weston, Massachusetts. Built in 1927–28, it is the last great summer estate house to be built in Weston, and one of about a dozen that survive. It was built for Edward Peirce, a businessman in the wool trade. It was for many years a conference center of Northeastern University, but is now in private ownership. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. Description and history The Henderson House stands in a residential area of southern Weston, on the west side of Westcliff Road. It is set on a knoll from which expansive views in all directions, but particularly to the south, are possible. It is a large 2+1⁄2-story structure, its foundation and first floor built of stone, and the upper levels finished in stone as well has half-timbered stucco in the Tudor Revival style. The woodwork on the upper levels has elaborate decorative elements, each gable and window group receiving slightly different treatment. A stone porte-cochere projects over the circular drive in front of the main entrance, which features a heavy wooden door. The interior public spaces are richly decorated in woodwork, ironwork, and stone. The house was built in 1927–28, on the site of an earlier Tudor house that burned in 1925. It was the centerpiece of a large country estate (more than 300 acres (120 ha) spanning the Weston-Wellesley line) of Edward Peirce, the owner, made a fortune in the wool business. The design was by Coolidge, Shepley, Bulfinch & Abbott, and may have reused portions of the previous estate house or its foundations. The estate also originally had a number of outbuildings, of which two have survived in altered forms as parts of nearby houses built on the former estate. The property passed into the hands of Roger Babson, before a nearly six-acre parcel was donated to Northeastern University by one of its trustees, Ernest Henderson. The school used the property as part of its continuing education programs and as a conference center. The house is the last surviving grand Tudor mansion of several that were once in Weston. The residence was closed for event functions as of December 31, 2014. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Weston, Massachusetts References
Edward Penniman House and Barn

The Edward Penniman House and Barn is a historic site in Eastham, Massachusetts, on Fort Hill, which is currently protected by the Cape Cod National Seashore and home to Indian Rock. The house was built in 1868 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. History The house was built by Edward Penniman (1831–1913). Penniman was attracted by the profits to be made as a whaler, so he ran to sea at age eleven and became master of his own whaling ship by age 29. He took his wife with him on his travels, which lasted up to four years. Penniman retired in 1868 and built this house with plans that he designed himself, including a modern toilet and bath with hot running water. Irma Knowles Penniman Broun sold the Penniman estate to the Cape Cod National Seashore. National Park Service The house is now on the Fort Hill Trail, which is kept up by the National Park Service.

Elbridge Gerry House

The Elbridge Gerry House is a historic house at 44 Washington Street in Marblehead, Massachusetts. Local lore holds that this house is a c. 1730 house that was the home of merchant Thomas Gerry, and the place where statesman and Founding Father Elbridge Gerry was born in 1744. Stylistic analysis of the house, however, suggests that it is instead a late Georgian or early Federalist construction dating to c. 1790. The house listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and included in the Marblehead Historic District in 1984.

Eldredge Public Library

Eldredge Public Library is the public library of Chatham, Massachusetts. It is located at 564 Main Street, in a National Register-listed Romanesque Revival building donated by Chatham native Marcellus Eldredge. It was designed by Boston architect A. M. Marble. Architecture and history The library is set at the southeast corner of Main Street and Library Lane in Chatham's central business district. It is a 1-1/2 story brick and stone structure, with a slate roof and a granite foundation. Its Romanesque Revival features include parapeted end walls, eyebrow dormers, and brownstone trim, including beltcourses, window trim, and corner quoining. A 1968 addition, extending the building to the rear, was rebuilt in the early 1990s to more sympathetically resemble the original building. The interior has floors of marble and oak, and lavish oak woodwork. The Chatham library has its origins in a small library in South Chatham in 1875, and a library and reading room in Chatham village in 1887. Marcellus Eldredge, a Chatham native who made a fortune as a brewer in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, offered the town a new library building, which was constructed in 1896 at a cost of $30,000. The designer was the otherwise little-known Boston architect A. M. Marble. Eldredge also established a $20,000 endowment to maintain the library. This building was enlarged in 1968 to a design by Alger and Gunn of Hyannis, and again in 1991-92 by A. Anthony Tappe of Tappé Architects in Boston. The library was listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its architectural significance in 1992. It is the only major Romanesque Revival work in the town, and one of very few in Barnstable County.

Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate

Das Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate ist ein 1902 errichtetes Landhaus in Canton im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten. Es wird ebenso wie das dazugehörige 90 Acres (36,4 ha) umfassende Grundstück von der Organisation The Trustees of Reservations verwaltet. Geschichte Im späten 19. Jahrhundert erbte der Arzt und Chirurg Arthur Tracy Cabot den Familienbesitz und ließ auf dem Grundstück 1902 von dem damals weithin bekannten und auf Landhäuser spezialisierten Architekten Charles A. Platt das noch heute stehende Haus mit den umgebenden Anlagen errichten. Cabot starb 1912 und hinterließ Grundstück und Haus seiner Witwe Susan. 1945 gelangten seine Nichte Eleanor Cabot Bradley (die Tochter seines Bruders Godfrey Lowell Cabot) und ihr Ehemann Ralph Bradley in den Besitz des Anwesens und erweiterten die Anlage um Teiche, einen Kameliengarten sowie ein Kunstatelier. Dabei veränderten sie die vorhandene Gartengestaltung und Bepflanzung nicht und erhielten so das ursprüngliche Aussehen des Anwesens. 1991 schenkte Eleanor Cabot Bradley in ihrem Testament den ihr gehörenden Anteil des Anwesens den Trustees of Reservations, die 1999 weitere Teilbereiche erwerben konnten. Haus und Gartenanlagen Das Anwesen befindet sich nicht weit entfernt von der betriebsamen Massachusetts Route 128 und bietet einen ruhigen Rückzugsort. Besonders erwähnenswert ist der mit gitterartigen Mauern umgebene Garten im Italianate-Stil, der das Kernstück von Platts architektonischem Konzept darstellt. Die streng formale Gestaltung des Gartens wird zugleich unterstützt und kontrastiert durch Anpflanzungen von Rhododendron, Azaleen und Hartriegel-Gewächsen. Weiterhin bieten sich den Besuchern einige Landwirtschaftsgebäude – ein kleiner Bauernhof ist heute noch in Betrieb – und 15 Acres (6,1 ha) offene Flächen an. Die äußeren Bereiche des Anwesens umfassen weitere 60 Acres (24,3 ha) Wald- und Feuchtgebiete, die von 3 mi (4,8 km) Wanderwegen durchzogen sind. Das Gelände ist täglich von Sonnenaufgang bis Sonnenuntergang kostenfrei zugänglich, das Haus selbst ist für Besucher jedoch nicht geöffnet. An Wochenenden finden dort häufig Hochzeiten statt, weshalb an diesen Tagen regelmäßig der Garten und die unmittelbare Umgebung des Hauses gesperrt sind. Die Trustees haben eine Reihe von Verhaltensregeln für das Anwesen festgelegt.

Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate

The Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate is a nonprofit country house and garden ground museum in Canton, Massachusetts. It is operated by The Trustees of Reservations. The grounds are open every day, sunrise to sunset, without charge. History In 1902, Dr. Arthur Tracy Cabot hired architect Charles A. Platt to design a country house with landscaping and outlying farm buildings. Its formal grounds include lawns, a walled garden, and a parterre. Dr. Cabot had seven siblings, but no children. The estate was passed on to his niece, Eleanor Cabot (daughter of his brother, Godfrey Lowell Cabot), who married Major Ralph Bradley in 1919. In 1945, she added ponds, a camellia house and greenhouse, and planted specimen trees. Additional land includes more than 60 acres (240,000 m2) of meadows and woods, with some 3 miles (4.8 km) of walking trails. The property was acquired through a bequest of Eleanor Cabot Bradley in 1991. Gallery References External links The Trustees of Reservation: Bradley Estate
Eleazer Goulding House

The Eleazer Goulding House is a historic house at 137 Western Avenue in Sherborn, Massachusetts. The house was built in 1825 by Capt. Ebenezer Mann, a local master builder.

Edward Gorey House

The Edward Gorey House, also known as the Elephant House, is the home on Cape Cod in which Edward Gorey—author, illustrator, puppeteer, and playwright—lived and worked from 1986 until his death in 2000. The house currently serves as a museum celebrating Gorey's life and work and is open annually from April to December. Gorey had a respect and passion for animals, cats in particular. The activities of the house, from art education to interactive exhibits, reflect Gorey's support of animal welfare. Overview The house, located on Strawberry Lane, was originally built in the early 1800s. In the 1830s, it was purchased by Yarmouth businessman Nathaniel Stone Simpkins, whose descendants lived in the home until they sold it to Edward Gorey in 1979. Gorey collected all sorts of objects; some of them were discarded objects found at the side of the road. He arranged and displayed such items on his porch and throughout the house. He also had a large collection of books and an overflowing library. Elephant House is also notable for its large southern magnolia tree in its yard, a species not usually found so far north. Preservation A 2002 grant from the Highland Street Foundation allowed the house to be purchased and the museum to be established. The Edward Gorey Charitable Trust, the owner of his intellectual property, regularly loans materials to the House. Gallery The Museum has a display of the Edward Gorey binding project.
