The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted did think about it and began to see the exposition as an opportunity to achieve something for which he had fought long and hard but almost always with disappointing results. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z As for Olmsted, Burnham was struck by the slightness of his frame, which seemed structurally insufficient to support so massive a skull. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted recognized that Burnham’s forces could not possibly finish patching and painting by May 1 and that his own work would be far from complete, but he saw clear improvement. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Burnham of course knew of Olmsted’s achievements: Central Park in Manhattan, Prospect Park in Brooklyn, the grounds of Cornell and Yale, and scores of other projects. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Burnham, partly to keep the peace, also urged Olmsted to accept it. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Clearly the possibility of failure at the exposition had occurred to Olmsted and troubled him. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z It was critical now, Olmsted argued, to concentrate on making improvements of a kind most likely to increase the gleam in the stories people took back to their hometowns. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted in particular felt the pressure but also felt hobbled by the persistent delays in installation of exhibits and the damage done by the repeated comings and goings of drays and freight cars.

The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Burnham saw that Olmsted’s work was far behind. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z On March 11 Olmsted dispatched a long letter to Ulrich full of instructions. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted saw this lagoon district as the most challenging portion of the fair. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Mary and her sons realized there was little they could do for Olmsted. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z On Tuesday, August 12, just four days after he and Codman arrived in Chicago, Olmsted filed a report with the exposition directors, who then to his chagrin made the report public. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted’s greatest concern, however, was that the main, Jackson Park portion of the exposition simply was not fun. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z He played up the fact of Olmsted’s participation. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z While personal accounts of the fair were enthusiastic, Olmsted wrote, “nearly always incompletenesses are referred to, favoring the idea that much remains to be done, and that the show will be better later.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z “When Olmsted is blue,” a friend once wrote, “the logic of his despondency is crushing and terrible.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted had come down from Boston the night before in order to join them. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Relenting slightly, Olmsted said he would think about it and agreed to meet with Ellsworth two days later, on Ellsworth’s return from Maine. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z What landscape architecture needed, Olmsted believed, was greater visibility, which in turn would bring greater credibility. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z At heart what Olmsted feared was that Burnham had transferred his loyalty to Ulrich. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted had intended the report for a professional audience, one that would take for granted Jackson Park’s fundamental acceptability and value the report as an unflinching guide to the challenges ahead. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The lack of rain and the fact that the park’s waterworks were not yet completed meant Olmsted could not plant exposed portions of the grounds. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted had begun to think in terms of fallback arrangements. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z A far more important outcome of the Rookery meeting, however, was Olmsted’s recognition that the architects’ noble dreams magnified and complicated the already-daunting challenge that faced him in Jackson Park. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Just as Olmsted sought to conjure an aura of mystery in his landscape, so here he urged the engineering of seemingly accidental moments of charm. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted was awed by the sheer numbers of workers involved. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The delays and damage angered Olmsted, but other matters distressed him even more. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Soon after the meeting Olmsted composed a strategy for the transformation of Jackson Park. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted delivered it on Monday, August 18, six days after the first. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z A first-time visitor might wonder if Olmsted’s men had done any work at all. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Newspapers reported that Olmsted also was present, but in fact he was in Asheville, North Carolina, continuing his work on Vanderbilt’s estate. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Both Olmsted and Hunt were hard at work on George Washington Vanderbilt’s manor, Biltmore, near Asheville, North Carolina, and together had built the Vanderbilt family’s mausoleum. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z While aboard the train, Burnham wrote a letter to Olmsted that contained a less-than-candid description of the meeting with the architects. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z One of the most pernicious factors, Olmsted found, was the widespread fear that anyone who ventured to Chicago would be “fleeced unmercifully,” especially in the fair’s many restaurants, with their “extortionate” prices. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The only color in the vicinity was the frost rouge on the men’s cheeks and the blue of Burnham’s and Olmsted’s eyes. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The park’s gravest flaw, at least from Olmsted’s perspective, was that its shoreline was subject to dramatic annual changes in the level of the lake, sometimes as much as four feet. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z He knew also that before launching the field of landscape architecture, Olmsted had been a writer and editor who had journeyed throughout the antebellum South exploring the culture and practice of slavery. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z “I am still tortured a good deal with neuralgia and toothache,” Olmsted wrote, “and I am tired and have a growing dread of worry & anxiety.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z He described for Olmsted a vision of a dream city designed by America’s greatest architects and covering an expanse at least one-third larger than the Paris fair. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Although Olmsted himself preferred the northernmost site, he insisted Jackson Park could work and “produce results of a pleasingly becoming character, such as have not hitherto been aimed at in World’s Fairs.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z In the first week of September 1892 Olmsted and his young party left England for home, departing Liverpool aboard the City of New York. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted got wind of it from Harry Codman, who in addition to being his chief operating man in Chicago served as a kind of spy, keeping Olmsted abreast of all threats to Olmsted’s vision. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted’s memory was not so destroyed that he did not realize he himself had designed McLean’s grounds. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Overall Olmsted remained confident that his exposition landscape would succeed. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z For Marion and the boys, it promised to be a dream journey; for Olmsted it became something rather more dark. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z As for the work under his own department, Olmsted was disappointed. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Soon after the party returned to Chislehurst, however, Olmsted’s health degraded and insomnia again shattered his nights. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z To produce the kind of landscape effects Olmsted strived to create required not months but years, even decades. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z They dumped some of his clothes in Olmsted’s lagoons at Jackson Park. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted, for his part, knew that Burnham had been a leading force in driving buildings into the clouds. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z They were to sit at a large T-shaped table, with Lyman Gage, president of the exposition, at the center of the topmost table, Hunt on his right, Olmsted on his left. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z What Olmsted wanted were “minor incidents...of a less evidently prepared character; less formal, more apparently spontaneous and incidental.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The lake was beautiful and always changing in hue and texture, but it was also, Olmsted argued, a novelty capable of amplifying the drawing power of the exposition. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z “I have never before, in all the numerous works for which I have been broadly responsible, trusted as much to the discretion of an assistant or co-operator,” Olmsted wrote. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted died at two in the morning on August 28, 1903. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Ellsworth hoped that Olmsted’s opinion, backed by his reputation as the wizard of Central Park, would help force a decision. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted recounted the endless trials of protecting Central Park from ill-thought modifications. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted recognized that now he himself would have to take over direct supervision of the exposition work, but he felt less up to the duty than ever. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z On Wednesday, August 6, 1890, three weeks after Ellsworth’s Brookline visit, the exposition company telegraphed Olmsted: “When can you be here?” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted talked it over with his sons and with the newest member of the firm, Henry Sargent Codman—“Harry”—an intensely talented young landscape architect who had quickly become a trusted adviser and confidant. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The enthusiasm Olmsted had identified during his travels, though still far from constituting a tidal wave, at last seemed to begin propelling visitors to Jackson Park. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted looked worn and gray, except for his eyes, which gleamed beneath his bald skull like marbles of lapis. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z With the Chicago fair always in mind, Olmsted examined every detail. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z When Burnham read Olmsted’s letter, he must have thought Olmsted had lost his mind. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z The architects approved the original brown-paper plan fashioned by Burnham, Olmsted, and Root with few changes. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted had another reason to worry about high meal prices. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z They wanted to know in detail how Olmsted felt about the sites selected for the fair, in particular about a central feature called the Wooded Island. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted watched, deadpan, as he listened to a roaring in his ears that would not subside. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z By the evening of February 17, 1893, as a blizzard bore down on Chicago, Olmsted was under a doctor’s care, confined to his hotel. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted valued plants, trees, and flowers not for their individual attributes but rather as colors and shapes on a palette. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z During his recuperation Olmsted ordered bulbs and plants for cultivation in two large nurseries established on the fairgrounds. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted, of course, knew that tremendous progress had been made, but it was the sort that escaped casual notice. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Soon afterward Burnham dispatched letters to all his department heads, including Olmsted. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z And Olmsted himself had grown increasingly susceptible to illness. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z During one Sunday visit Olmsted and the boys found four bands playing, refreshment stands open, and a few thousand people roaming the paths. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z On arrival Eliot saw immediately that Olmsted was ill. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted too sensed that something extraordinary had occurred, but the meeting also troubled him. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z “Never lose sight of the fact that our special responsibility as landscape artists applies primarily to the broad, comprehensive scenery of the Exposition,” Olmsted wrote. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Burnham was decisive, blunt, and cordial; he spoke under a level blue gaze that Olmsted found reassuring. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted used the opportunity to describe in detail Jackson Park and the trials of dealing with the exposition’s many layers of committees that for the moment seemed to have so much power. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z By April 21 Olmsted was again confined to bed “with sore throat, an ulcerating tooth, and much pain preventing sleep.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z With deep misgivings Olmsted had left the work in the care of his superintendent, Rudolf Ulrich, whom he had come to distrust. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted’s wife, Mary, took Olmsted to the family’s island home in Maine, where his depression deepened and he at times became violent. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted weighed in with a letter describing the proposed road as “unreasonable, unjust and immoral.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z He wrote to Olmsted’s landscape superintendent, Rudolf Ulrich, “it seems to me you can now cut your force down one-half, and at the same time let very many expensive men go.” The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Their insistence prompted Burnham to telegraph Olmsted immediately and urge him once again to come. The Devil in the White City 2003-02-11T00:00:00Z Olmsted intended that the site serve as both college campus and botanic garden. Maya Lin to Lead Redesign of Smith College Library 2015-04-08T04:00:00Z Central Park is, in every sense, the “Clearing in the Distance” that Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux originally imagined it should be. 10 Places That Define New York City, Reimagined 2017-10-30T04:00:00Z In 1903, the Olmsted Brothers — the noted landscape-design firm that also designed New York City's Central Park — eyed Seward Park in a similar way. Seward Park: 100 years of inspiration 2011-11-10T04:20:05Z The first leg of that relay, Drabelle avers, was run by Frederick Law Olmsted — the same Olmsted who “magicked” the makeover of Central Park and other urban oases.
