A 'Joan Crawford' Foursquare, but where? |
I call this a 'Joan Crawford' Foursquare because it appears to be from her prime period -- the 1940s or early 1950s. This Moderne interpretation of the Foursquare is unusual in two regards: it is not a center-hall, with the entry and staircase in an unusual arrangement against an outer wall of the 'square', and secondly, there is a wing with a separate entrance, which could have been meant for a professional office attached to the residence. (That's as much of a clue as I'm giving.)

Joan Crawford held sway as the house-obsessed 'Harriet Craig'. Is that shag carpet? Was she prescient, or what?! |
Answer tomorrow.

West 7th st next to the old JCC now UBF building. It was Dr, Naidorf's office/residence and subsequently Dr. Sawhney used the office space.
How can anyone with an overbearing mother NOT envision Joan Crawford in any setting lol !! Beautiful...I am however, without a clue as to the house.
I wouldn't place a bey on it, but if I had to guess I would say West Seventh near Grant. I have seen this house and always said "wow," yet your photo makes it look even better. Congratulations to the homeowners for a house well maintained.
