Plan to Develop Johns(t)on Estate of Plainfield

 Also published, 1 August 1936, the confirmation of neighborhood review by the FHA representative Emil J. J. Beechel for review in Washington.... so many typo's...

The Swimming pool still exists! ... sort of... 

Also, a note on the "park area to be established"  ... Union County had Olmsted Brothers Landscape Architects conduct a survey for a potential park.  

You can view those survey plans here, they include the swimming pool, solarium, mansion, orchard, gardens, and other features of the Estate.
