Shadow Brook Farm
THE EXTERIOR WALLS OF BRICK COVERED WITH STUCCO ARE WARM IN TONE
ner to make it doubtful where the old work stopped
and the new began, a case in point being the en-
trance doorway, which although quite new seems
particularly happy in its old environment.
The stable is perhaps next of interest on the
farm, and has been designed as a center for the
farm group. In one wing are the box stalls, which
accommodate Dr. Fahnestock's favorite hunters.
Beyond the stable to the north, and on an axis
with it, is a henhouse two hundred feet long, and
beyond that a large hay barn.
All the farm buildings are built of clapboards of
Washington cedar, giving the effect of strong hori-
zontal lines, which, together with the carefully stud-
ied roof surfaces, help to make the buildings appear
low and anchored to the ground.
