The Years of Olmsted, Vaux & Company, 1865-1874 documents one of the most productive periods of Olmsted's career.

Its rich assortment of documents will be of interest to historians, landscape architects, urban planners, and anyone concerned with the roots of modern America. The Olmsted Papers project is supported by the Andrew W.
