Part 6/12:
Beyond the mansion, Drury’s passion for landscape and garden design led him to acquire a five-acre estate directly opposite the house, which he named “The Oasis.” This property was transformed into a formal garden retreat adorned with serene reflecting pools, cascading waterfalls, water lilies, and a charming pagoda overlooking the water. This private enclave exemplified Drury's love of grand landscapes and meticulously crafted horticultural spaces, providing a stark contrast to the urban splendor of Euclid Avenue.
