Alteration
Architect Cory Buckner renovated this Crestwood Hills residence in 2010 through 2012. Jennifer Baum Lagdameo, writing for Dwell.com, said of this renovation: "“The renovation gave careful attention to historic details and thoughtfully restored the home in keeping with its original design. This included stripping all the materials from the interiors and restoring them to match the home's original wood finish. Now, the home truly shines inside and out. There are tongue-and-groove ceilings with exposed beams, exposed cinder blocks, warm wood-paneled walls, and expansive glazing through the living space that provide spectacular views.” (See Jennifer Baum Lagdameo, Dwell.com, “A. Quincy Jones and Whitney R. Smith’s Historic Schneidman House Lists for $3.8M,” published 08/13/2020, accessed 08/18/2020.)
