The Frick Collection Garden, East Wall, Architects Plan RP/1/14/15/12

A dyeline elevation drawing of the east wall of the Frick garden, drawn up by the architect J. B. Bayley (reference number 1976/81/8, scale 1/8").

One of Russell Page’s few public commissions, his design for the 70th Street garden at The Frick Collection, a museum close to Central Park in Manhattan’s East Side, is an excellent example of his ability to develop his plan around the particularities of the site. Constructed in 1977, it still survives to this day. Its popularity was made evident in 2015 when public protests successfully halted plans to demolish it.
