Tudor Place Study
Step back in time one hundred years to the day to the studious atmosphere of the Tudor Place Study. The steady typing on a typewriter, shuffling of papers, and creaking wood is punctuated every so often by the ringing of the phone - who knows who could be on the other end of the line.
The first-floor office is one of the rare rooms at Tudor Place whose furnishings point to a single era rather than a span of time and use. The mansion’s fourth and final owner, Armistead Peter 3rd (1896-1983), worked here into the 1980s, but maintained the room and its furnishings much as his father had set them up in the 1920s. With its natural artifacts and memorabilia, book-lined décor, and veridian walls, the room by design continued to reflect the tastes and interests of Armistead Peter, Jr., (1870-1960), who worked here throughout his adult life.
