A(ter having read your lottor addressed to the Planning and Zoning
C~lsslon. datod Fobruary 14, 19921 I want to elaborate on .y lottor
to you datod Fobruary 7, 1992,
lot 10 assure you, destroying tho houso at 2800 Rochostor Avonuo, Is not
tho choice I proposo, I havo hold tho property and structure Intact --
slnco August I, 1991, In hopes that your Commission or othor Intorosted
partlos would step (orward with a solution In r~ard to tho (uturo o(
this houso, 51nco no other avenue has boen of(ered by your Commission
In solving tho homos' (uturel the problem Is stili before us to resolve,
As I IOntloned In .y previous letter, WI took a long hard ovaluatlon o(
our project to seo I( the house could be Incorporated Into our development.
I have como to the conclusion that our project would be placed In a
position o( higher risk with the house as part o( our development,
I havo studied the IIterlal provided by Hs, Jan Nash and Professor
Robert F, Sayro and respect their opinions and Interost In presorvlng
this structure, In.y study o( the matorlal, I (ound that Hr, Oownlng's
archltecturo and landscaping expertise Is roforrod to as being o( a
"rural" naturo.
In tho nlnoteonth century, the lIaddock's surched (or this rural sottlng
and (ound this slto to placo this rural cottago, A contury ago and a
great dlstanco from tho town o( Iowa City, I can seo this site In the
country, When the condominiums are built at this site It will no longor
carry the rural characteristics th~t the lIaddock's visioned for this
structure, There will no longer be a view o( this house from Rochester
Avenue (or the citizens to view as tboy drive by moving east and west
along Rochester Avonue,

It wal good of you to aond mo 10 prompt1r tho matoria1 on

lack of approciation but only bocause a varioty of ob1igationl
have kopt mo from my dosk until today,
In my opinion, you and Jan Nash aro unqUostionab1r corroct
in looing tho Cottage Gothic sty10 of D1uffwood as hav ng boon
initially made popular in tho Unitod Statos by ^ndrow Jackson
Downing, boginning in IB41 with hil IlaAtiso on~nd'cADO Gardan:
in9L Of courao Downing drow oxtonlivo1y on Engliah 10urcoI and ~
. Wal aSliltod by hil inform41 collaborator, tho ta10ntad architoct
^loxandor Jacklon Davis. In fact, it wal probably from Davia and
hil ~ (1837/381 that Downing took tho vertical lid-
ing ~hil dOligna and at D1uffwood. Downing'l popu-
lar IUCCOII loon inlpirod othor architectural writorl to follow

and William Ranlett - to montion only a fow that como mOlt roadi-
1y to mind. Thoro waro, of courlO, many othorl.
It il particularly intorolting to 100 tho Rural Gothio tra-
dition lurviving in tho mid-Wolt al late al IB75 in luoh an ox-
ample al Dluffwood, Inltancoa of thil kind are comparatively raro,
in my eMporionce, whioh makea it all tho moro important that thoy
