Record of treatment and existing conditions for Fairsted and the Green Hill parcel at Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site in Brookline, Massachusetts. This report serves as a capstone on a remarkable sequence of research, planning and treatment that have returned the Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site landscape to the general layout and specific conditions existing during the early 1930s. Organized with present and future landscape stewards in mind, this report covers episodes of landscape treatment undertaken on the original 1.75 acre Fairsted property acquired in 1979, as well as treatment work undertaken on the adjacent and much larger 5.31 acre Green Hill Parcel acquired in 2001.
