Reviews
"Stoneacre (1884), the three acres property opposite Vernon Court, is named for the mansion which once occupied that site. The mansion was designed by architect William A. Potter for John W. Ellis. Potter recommended Frederick Law Olmsted (1822–1903) to Mr. Ellis. Stoneacre was Olmsted's first commission after establishing his office in Brookline and naming the new profession of landscape architecture, making it the first professional landscape architectural commission. The Stoneacre mansion was demolished in 1963, to reduce real estate taxes and the grounds lay dormant for decades thereafter, the last privately owned open space on Bellevue Avenue. Stoneacre was purchased in 1998, by Judy Goffman Cutler and Laurence S. Cutler with a vision to create a memorial park honoring Frederick Law Olmsted, America's first professional landscape architect. In 2016 the grounds which include several Rhode Island State Champion trees, were recognized as a level 1 arboretum by ArbNet."
