September 1937 - DAISY HELPS FDR DESIGN HIS PRIVATE COTTAGE IN HYDE PARK

FDR and Daisy collaborate on plans for what will ultimately become Top Cottage, a private retreat for FDR to use after his presidency.  The cottage is located on a hill in Hyde Park that is a favorite of FDR and Daisy. The two trade letters with ideas and drawings for the little house in late 1937 and early 1938.  Top Cottage would be completed in June, 1939.
