The Harrie T. Lindeberg Drawings of the Ellsleigh Estate contain plans, elevations, sections, and details of elements such as staircases, windows, and fireplaces. The collection also includes specifications and some correspondence between Lindeberg and the original owner Robert Lee Ellis and with interior designer Ernesta Beaux. The bulk of the materials range in date from 1925 to 1929. A small amount of materials date from 2002 and 2020.
Harrie (H.T.) Lindeberg (1879-1959) was a New York architect who designed country estates for clients from New York to Illinois to Texas to North Carolina. He worked with McKim, Mead and White early in his career and later opened his own firm with his associate Lewis Colt Albro. He designed houses mostly in Beaux Arts or Georgian revival styles.
