EDITORS COMMENTS
The Causeway" at 3100 Macomb Street in Washington, D.C., as captured in this stunning 1919 photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a breathtaking glimpse into the elegant estate of James Parmelee. Designed by renowned architect Charles Adams Platt in 1912, the house and its surrounding landscape were a masterpiece of early 20th-century American design. The photograph showcases the unique "Causeway," a winding pathway that leads to the house, flanked by lush greenery and adorned with statues. The overall plan for the landscape was created by Charles Adams Platt, with horticultural design by Ellen Biddle Shipman in 1913. The estate, named Tregaron, was a popular social gathering place in the 1920s and was known for its beautiful gardens and stunning architecture. The image captures the essence of the era, with the stately James Parmelee house standing proudly in the background, its red brick facade contrasting beautifully with the lush greenery of the landscape. The steps leading up to the house are framed by the archway of trees, creating a picturesque scene that transports us back in time. The lantern slide, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, showcases the meticulous attention to detail that was put into the design and execution of this historic estate. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and elegance of American estate living during the early 20th century and is a valuable addition to any collection of historic American architecture and horticulture.
