I am grateful here for the discussion of this topic by David Leatherbarrow, The Roots of Architectcural Invention: Site, Enclosure, Materials (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1993), 1–6, from which I quote in my text, with my italics.

23. If these are indeed Holmes’s annotations (it is certainly his copy), p. 133, in the Rare Book Room of the Fine Arts Library, University of Pennsylvania. He also writes “simplicity” in the margin (1938, p. 67) when Tunnard calls for “a new simplicity in gardens” (p. 67); otherwise, the only annotations are pencil marks alongside various paragraphs.

24. Quoted in Jacques and Woudstra, 115.

25. See image in 1948, p. 68. Other images of the wall are in Brown, figs. 23 and (for the wall) 24. Tunnard’s various garden projects, which cannot be discussed fully in this context, are discussed fully in Jacques and Woudstra, though the relevant discussions are somewhat scattered through the volume. This is especially useful for Tunnard’s work at Gaulby, see below.

26. See Alison Hirsch, “Lawrence Halprin: The Choreography of Private Gardens,” Studies in the History of Gardens and Designed Landscapes 27, no. 4 (2007), being a collection of and commentary on Halprin’s drawings and plans of American gardens in the Architectural Archives of the University of Pennsylvania. Halprin records both his discovery of Tunnard’s book in Wisconsin (“I realized it was speaking my language”) and his subsequent work under him at Harvard in A Life Spent Changing Places (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2011); Halprin also records Tunnard’s “helping” Philip Johnson with his garden, pp. 42–45.

27. These suburban garden ideas are illustrated in Jacques and Woudstra, 37, 39, and 40.

28. See Marc Treib and Dorothée Imbert, Garret Eckbo: Modern Landscape for Living (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1997), 33–38. When Eckbo, Dan Kiley, and James Rose wrote their articles on primeval, rural, and urban environments in Architectural Record (1939–40), Tunnard was referred to as “the English landscapist.”

29. Some of these American designs are discussed and illustrated in Jacques and Woudstra, 165–78.

32. Ibid., 235–36, citing the Tunnard Yale archives.

33. From catalog entry for the exhibition “Garden and Landscape,” organized by the Institute of Landscape Architecture and held at the Royal Institute of British Architects. See Jacques and Woudstra, 38ff.

36. The first half of Tunnard’s book The City of Man (New York: Scribner’s, 1953) was firmly grounded in history, and he acknowledged a special debt to Henry Hope Reed, a determined nay-sayer on modernism.
