Re :adding my own original research work to Hartwood Acres, Pittsburgh - and also to Rose Greeley, Landscape Architect

Back in 2002 while I was a Masters' student at Chatham University, I discovered some forgotten landscape designs by noted landscape architect Rose Greeley in the attic of Hartwood Acres mansion - now known as Hartwood Acres Park. Also in the forgotten bundle was a design by Pittsburgh landscape architect, Ralph Griswold, who was the architect for The Point at Pittsburgh. In addition, I found an elevation of a promenade to be called the Hemlock Court by landscape architect Ezra Stiles. (I would like to add to his page too)

Mary Flinn Lawrence, who hired Greeley,Stiles & Griswold, never completed the designs or any of the Rose Greeley Cutting garden design because of the outbreak of WWII.

I would like to contribute those images and my thesis in each of those sections (Hartwood Acres, Greeley, Griswold and perhaps Mary Flinn Lawrence) but I am not sure how to go about it. I have images of the designs by Greeley & Griswold and my own rendering of what Greeley's Rose Garden design would have looked like. These items are in the public domain, as I gave a bound copy to Pittsburgh Parks, National Parks Historic Landscape headquarters in Washington DC, and one to Chatham University, where I was a Masters' candidate.

The whole thesis makes most sense when taken as a whole, which is why I would like to contribute the whole thing rather than the images and brief explanations, piecemeal. But I will follow whatever you suggest.

{{Helpme}} PS--Since writing this I managed to upload several things! Please look and see if you can use them. ;^)

Unfortunately, any unpublished works by Rose Greeley are copyrighted until 70 years after her death in 1969. To publish these on Commons under a free license, we would need the consent of an heir, or of her firm if the designs were made as part of her employment. The same 70 years after death rule applies to the other individuals as well. Guanaco (talk) 14:48, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
