    A modernist house for Saul L. Victor goes up after Fieldston loosens its taste for traditional styles

    Architect Ferdinand Gottlieb designed this two-story house for Saul L. Victor, built in 1966-67 after the Fieldston Property Owners Association relaxed the rules that had favored historical designs. Exposed steel supports, a stepped bridge to the front door, horizontal wood paneling and a two-level flat roof mark it as Mid-Twentieth-Century Modern.

    “…built in 1966-67 for owner Saul L. Victor at a time after the Fieldston Property Owners Association relaxed its architectural guidelines…”
