The Start of My Morris Plains Blog
September 2nd, 2009 | 
Author: Dear Neighbors
Did you know we have a celebrity in our town? The home known as Silver Birch or what we all know as 6 Court Road was designed by the world famous architect and furniture maker Gustave Stickly. The house was designed around 1920 for William C Parker. (Now you know where the name for Parker Drive came from.) Parker was a well known photographer who had a studio in Morristown at the time.
Stickley a furniture maker born in Wisconsin started a magazine that expounded the English Arts and Crafts movement of the late 1800’s. Stickley believed that a house should be constructed in harmony with its landscape using only local materials in its construction. Craftsman houses as they became known had open floor plans to encourage family interaction, built in book cases and benches and large windows to let in natural light. These homes where known for their simple and elegant lines sturdy structure and natural materials. The Craftsman was a reaction to the opulence of the Victorian style of architecture of the late 1800’s.
Frank Lloyd Wright was later to be influenced by this style of architecture. The emphasis on the originality of the artist/craftsman led to new design concepts that later led to the Art Deco movement of the 1930’s. Silver Birch, named for the many “Silver Birch” trees in the area is one of eight of the most significant architectural and historical structures in Morris County that we have in town.
I hoped you enjoyed the little history lesson, I am starting up this new website that will be dedicated entirely to the real estate market in Morris Plains. Besides letting you know what homes are for sale and how the real estate market is doing in town. You will be able to learn the current value of your home; it will estimate what improvements to your home will bring the best value, and what items will detract from that value. My site will also include a page for town news and announcements. I have always thought we have a very nice town here and I think we should show it off a little bit.
It is also my intention each month to highlight an individual structure that has a significant place in the history of the town. So please take a moment and take a look at my site, tell your friends and relatives it is http://www.morris-plains-homes-nj.com
