Aerial View, 1949
This aerial photograph looks eastward from the intersection of Mayfield and Taylor Roads. The Longwood Estate is the open stretch of land to the south of Mayfield Road, which runs across the left side of the image. In 1917, The Architectural Record said of the estate, "The entire place is imbued with the charm of the old English manors and, although new, has little of the awkwardness of youth; quite to the contrary, its splendid setting of trees, augmented by a liberal planting of shrubbery, has tied it well into its surroundings, so that it already possesses that most desirable of assets, the quality of seeming to be an essential part of its environment." | Source: City of Cleveland Heights
