| 1278 | McAlpine Greenhouse |
|
| site plan, elevations, foundation plans, engineering plans, sketches Roc's Comments: Peggy Rockefeller asked me to come up and look at the greenhouse that supported the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Gardens at that time. the plants were growing too tall and "leggy" I suggested this was because she had been sold a system that was Kalwall plastic that became more opaque with age. She asked me to prove it and I hired Peter Knuppel a good local lighting designer to test the light. the data was dramatic and Peggy and David Rockefeller asked me to design a replacement greenhouse not only for the AARG but also to add wings for Thuja and the Asticou gardens which they seemed to think would require support in the future. We chose the Rough Brothers, a Cincinnati company that supplied excellent greenhouses for college and public gardens around the country. The project went off without a hitch and the greenhouses have been in constant use ever since. The seedlings are no longer leggy. The McAlpine Farm complex is now the center for the Land And Garden Preserve a non-profit organization responsible for the AARG, Asticou, and Thuja Gardens and 1,000 acres of parkland and trails including Little Long Pond. |

| 1242 | John and Josephine Ingle |
|
| Site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, mechanical Roc's Comments: This project was an addition on a garage! The Ingles found that they had zoning permission to add a substantial addition to their garage. They wanted a sturdy home that would house their grown children and guests. We worked hard to create an attractive structure that looked like it had always been there. I think we succeeded. The living room in this house is really pleasant. John Gordon was the excellent project manager on this one and the building looks it. |

| 1243 | John and Maude March |
|
| Floor plans, elevations, sketches Roc's Comments: I love Maude March. When she and John asked me to design their home I was delighted to do it. Their family and John's legal career were young and it was difficult to satisfy all of John's requirements. I don't think I succeeded as, once it was done, I never heard from John again. I still love Maude March. |

| 1245 | Kaiser Kitchen |
|
| south elevation, interior Roc's Comments: Neva and Walter Kaiser asked me to design a kitchen renovation for their home "Stonecrop" on Bracy Cove. Neva is a brilliant woman but does not see three dimensional spaces in her mind. We would mock up the various elements of this project in cardboard and duct tape and scrap lumber and she came to life and, I think we made a charming and efficient kitchen space for them. Bob Patterson, a trustee at College of the Atlantic, introduced us and he designed the beautiful garden in front of the new bay window. |

| 1250 | Joanie's Garden House |
|
| Sections, floor plan, elevations Roc's Comments: Finley and Joanie Matheson had a sweet piece of land in Seal Harbor behind the wonderful Grosvenor Atterbury church. When Finley asked me to design a new home for them I unfortunately had more work than we could handle and did not want to agree to something we could not due and recommended some fellows in Blue Hill. When their project was complete I did have time to design a small garden cottage for Joanie. This was after those wonderful little "nap houses" scattered thru the hills built by large summer families that wanted a quiet respite from the summer frenzy. Joanie loved it. |

| 1252 | Matheson Tea Room |
|
| Elevations, floor plans, details Roc's Comments: Joanie Matheson needed a get away place. A garden house or teahouse. A place that was hers alone and she could escape to it and read or write or just sit and think. It is interesting how many of these little "getaway" places there are here on MDI. A phenomenon of the intense summer season and its sometimes draining impact on the matriarch and hostess. This project was a real pleasure to do. Joanie is a special person and I could sit and draw it by hand and do it all without staff and complications and I love the result and think Joanie does as well. |
