So the wallpaper would have most likely been 19th century (rather than 18th). There are still a number of houses from an early date in Manhattan and it is a charming surprise to come upon them.The Devoted Classicisthttp://tdclassicist.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-71593570421917439562012-06-20T10:26:32.287-04:002012-06-20T10:26:32.287-04:00I have passed that home when in NY + glad to know ...I have passed that home when in NY + glad to know of it's origins. xxpeggybraswelldesign.compeggy braswellhttp://peggybraswelldesign.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-15935276775224247272012-06-20T10:25:00.559-04:002012-06-20T10:25:00.559-04:00Sister Parish would have approved of many of the r...Sister Parish would have approved of many of the rustic, country elements!The Peak of Chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02811933436075145329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-76968465983087074832012-06-20T09:54:55.641-04:002012-06-20T09:54:55.641-04:00Jeffery, great information!

It is on 93rd between Park and Lexington Avenue in a row (3 or 4) of similar homes which are unusual because they are wood with front "yards" and porches as opposed to the typical brownstone/townhouse. I know the family that now lives in this house. I was in it several times during the renovation they did a few years ago. The family consulted with Ferguson & Shamamian architects on the renovation. It is STUNNING! Fortunately, both husband and wife appreciate history and the fabulous architecture already in existence and as you probably know, Ferguson & Shamamian always honors the past. <br />I would certainly make an introduction for you to the wife so you can see it on your next trip to NYC. By the way, you and I need to meet! I recently moved to Atlanta (from New York and Lafayette, Louisiana) and live in Peachtree Hills. Lunch at Lapin one day soon? I am in New York right now and will be on e. 93rd later today. I will take a photo of the house now for you to see!<br />Best, Jeffery McCulloughJeffery McCulloughhttp://www.jefferymccullough.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-20410147377382165542012-06-20T09:09:01.055-04:002012-06-20T09:09:01.055-04:00That's good to hear!
