No way!  A home by Frederick Law Olmsted?  I'm surprised that it's
not owned by the historical society, etc.  I assume that they have 
restrictions on the gardening style to keep it in accordance with Olmsted's
original vision?

For those of you interested in Olmsted, there's a page about him at:

Where is the home located?
