@StevenTDennis Was just wondering how the estate got carved out of Rock Creek and realized given the lineage it may well work the other way.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Good question. Looks like he bought it in 1986. http://articles.philly.com/1986-08-03/living/26063854_1_sharon-percy-rockefeller-jay-rockefeller-new-pool-house …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@StevenTDennis Yeah, no sign it was in the family. Curious how it got carved out of the park, in 1927.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Found something interesting. It was named for a South Carolina plantation. http://www.crestwood-dc.org/history pic.twitter.com/B6yfWOcUSF
