THE FOLLOWING FOUR PHOTOS MADE BY C.D. ARNOLD IN THE
PERIOD ROUGHLY 1885-90 WERE ALL MARKED "ORANGE, N.J." BY ARNOLD.
THERE IS NO ARCHITECT OR OWNER LISTED, AND AS I HAVE LEARNED, THERE
IS NO EXACT "ORANGE" TOWN AS SUCH BUT RATHER AREAS OF "SOUTH, WEST , EAST
AND ORANGE". THESE HOMES COULD BE ANYWHERE BUT MOST LIKELY IN
AREAS THAT WERE AFFLUENT IN THE 1880'S, SUCH AS LLEWELYN PARK, OR SEVEN OAKS
OR THE MONTROSE SECTION OF SOUTH ORANGE. [THANKS TO REALTOR ROBERTA BALDWIN
WHO HELPED CLARIFY THE SITUATION OF THE "ORANGE" AREAS]
AN
AREA WEST OF NEWARK AND NEW YORK CITY. IF ANYONE HAS INFORMATION REGARDING
THESE BUILDINGS AS TO LOCATION, ARCHITECT, 1ST OWNER, ETC. I WOULD BE PLEASED
TO HEAR FROM THEM AND UPDATE MY INFORMATION.
