DescriptionPhotograph from an album of 208 cyanotypes on cream wove paper.One of the many residential buildings to be built on Salisbury land at the turn of the century, this Colonial Revival-style house on the corner of Tuckerman Street and Institute Road, just north of the Salisbury House, was designed by Stephen C. Earle at the request of Stephen III for his friend Susan Reed-Lawton. Photographed by Coulson upon its completion, the house was designed to serve as a home and studio for Reed-Lawton to teach music. When he died in 1905, Salisbury left Reed-Lawton the house and one hundred thousan dollars in cash.
