Housing, Improved: United States. Massachusetts. Brookline. Jamaica Property: Sage Foundation Homes Co. Jamaica Property: As Platted by Board of Estimate and Apportionment 1912

Editor: Here we have "Housing, Improved: United States. Massachusetts. Brookline. Jamaica Property: Sage Foundation Homes Co. Jamaica Property: As Platted by Board of Estimate and Apportionment" by Olmsted Brothers. It seems to be an architectural plan, maybe a blueprint. What jumps out at you when you see this? Curator: Blueprints! Before everyone had computers, this was how design took shape, ethereal lines blossoming into brick and mortar. I wonder, looking at its planned order, if the reality met its design. Did people find freedom or constraint within this ordered space? Editor: That's interesting. It makes you wonder about the human experience within the design. Curator: Exactly. Art isn’t just about what’s on the surface, but what questions it prompts us to ask about the world. Editor: I'll definitely think about that as I look at architectural drawings from now on.
