| A pagoda hood over the entrance to the Charles E. F. McCann residence at Oyster Bay. L. I. is supported by white painted iron grilles in conventional patterns. More ironwork is seen guarding the transom and filling a break of the parapet wall. James W. O'Connor, architect; Annette Hoyt Flanders, landscape architect. |
"The appropriation for a house should be divided into two equal parts, one-half for the house, the other for the gardens, pathways, court, approach, terrace and the rest of it, or, as it might be termed, one-half for the pudding, the other for the sauce." Architect Thomas Hastings
