$7,500,000 CALIFORNIA SUPER MEGA ESTATE SPRING MANSION BERKELEY HILLS CALIFORNIA
HILLTOP MEGA ESTATE BERKELEY CALIFORNIA
1960 San Antonio Street Berkeley Hills Berkeley California 94707
7 beds 7 baths 12,000 sqft
$7,500,000 @MarkALongstreet
The owner of the historic, three-plus acre Spring Estate in Thousand Oaks commissioned a tasteful update of several elements of the 12,000 square foot main house that successfully demonstrates how majestic Beaux-Arts Mansion can be brought back to glorious life. Bay Sotheby's International Realty's Top Producer Herman Chan enlisted HGTV host and Berkeley native celebrity designer Cora Sue Anthony to revamp the landmark estate. The Mansion's exterior was repaired and given a coat of gleaming white paint. The result returns the exterior close to the original state and it is easy to see why, in the days before the hillside was forested, the mansion resembled a glittering jewel visible from San Francisco across the bay.
Inside, many rooms in the Mansion have undergone an elegant metamorphosis. In the right hands, the home's over-sized grandeur can be modernized to achieve an intimacy more in keeping with today's aesthetics and lifestyles.
The Mansion is now awash in understated classic muted colors. The gleaming whiteness of 4 huge, stucco covered Tuscan columns now helps disperse light from the original stained-glass ceiling that tops the 30-feet atrium. Atop the stained glass is a colossal glass pyramid skylight. The total effect brings to mind a modern, livable version of San Simeon's Hearst Castle. A large dining room, billiards room, the kitchen, butler's pantry, breakfast room and servant's quarters complete the first floor.
Upstairs the 26-foot long master bedroom, with en suite, a separate dressing room with skylight, inglenook, and carved fireplace has also been dramatically staged to highlight the room's panoramic views of San Francisco Bay from Marin County to the South Bay.
JOHN HOPKINS SPRING:
The mansion was built by John Hopkins Spring, an entrepreneur who developed much of north Berkeley and Albany, and was instrumental in the building of Berkeley's Claremont Hotel. Spring began buying land in the East Bay prior to the San Francisco earthquake. He made a fortune after 1906 selling San Franciscans who fled the city for safer locations across the bay. In 1912, he commissioned John Hudson Thomas to design a grand residence designed to promote his development of the Thousand Oaks area. The result was an imposing structure on the nearly bare hillside that was visible for miles even, reportedly, from San Francisco.
THE ARCHITECT:
John Hudson Thomas graduated from Yale in 1902 and completed graduate work in the Department of Architecture at U.C. Berkeley in 1904. He is considered one of the most innovative California architects of the first quarter of the 20th century. Thomas' homes span, and sometimes combine, California bungalow, Prairie, Mission, even Gothic and Vienna Secession styles. He was also a master at combining materials in his exteriors. Thomas is noted for his deliberate over-scaling, and the Spring Mansion is built on a grand Roman scale. Spring Mansion features many of Thomas' signature elements: bays, multi-shaped windows, and the eclectic and romantic mixture of visual influences. These combine with the more formal and classical elements of the Mansion's design to illustrate Thomas' skill and ability to borrow from many modes and fuse them into a unique and powerful overall design.
ADDITIONAL HISTORY:
The Springs moved into the Mansion in 1914, but Spring himself lived there barely a year before abandoning it and his family to run off with a nurse 25 years his junior. He sold the mansion after his divorce in 1918. Sixteen acres of the original garden were subdivided and sold, and the house and remaining acreage became the Cora L. Williams Institute of Creative Development. For the next 5 decades the estate operated as a private school. Many prominent people taught or lectured at the Institute including dancer Isadora Duncan and psychiatrist Alfred Adler.

Saratoga Flag- New York State Flag by SaratogaFlag.com
Saratoga Flag Company had the proud honor of updating the New York State Seal, in order to manufacture the largest known New York State Flag, to fly in New York State!
DEDICATED ARTISTS: Our professional artists spent hundreds of hours re-drawing the New York State Seal (Coat of Arms) from scratch, in order to stitch up a Custom 11 FT x 17 FT NYS flag to fly on a 60 FT flagpole in the City of Glens Falls (Upstate New York). The Life-sized Goddesses, Liberty & Justice, stand 6ft tall on the flag.
HISTORIC LOCATION: Saratoga Flag is located in Gansevoort New York, which holds another special tie to the New York State Flag (originally designed during the Revolutionary War). The hamlet of Gansevoort (located in Saratoga County, just 20 miles north of the Historic Saratoga Battlefield) is named for the American Revolutionary War Colonel Peter Gansevoort, who ordered construction of the Gansevoort Flag in 1777. This flag is believed to be the inspiration for the New York State flag and can be found at the Albany Institute of History & Art.
ORDER THE NEW NYS FLAG: The Updated NYS Flag design can be purchased (in a variety of sizes) exclusively at SaratogaFlag.com.
INTERPRETATION OF THE NYS SEAL (courtesy of Wiki-pedia): According to Joseph Gavit in New York History, Volume XXXI, the seal symbolizes the following:
• In the center, a shield reveals the sun rising behind Mount Beacon over the Hudson River. The shield symbolizes in the full sun the name and idea of Old York and the old world; the mountains, river and meadow, with the ships, convey the name and idea of New York in the new world.
• To the right, Justice is ready to fight tyranny with her sword held high.
• Liberty on the left, holds her foot on the overthrown English Crown. This New York is supported by Justice and Liberty, and discards monarchy.
• The world globe is displayed above the shield. By exhibiting the eastern and western continents on the globe, the old and new are brought together;
• Above the world globe soars the eagle. while the eagle on the crest proclaims, Westward the course of empire takes its way.
• The bottom ribbon exclaims Excelsior, which means still higher or ever upward.

Museum of the Big Bend | Exhibit Hall Walkthrough
Museumscapes completed this three-year, 5000 sq. ft. museum project in 2007 to interpret the cultural, historic, and natural resources found in far West Texas and northern Mexico. The Museum collaborated with Museumscapes to renovate a 1937 native rock building on the campus of Sul Ross State University as a state-of-the art exhibit space.
Museumscapes used a layered approach to storytelling, establishing touchstones such as places, events, and people to communicate the rich and rugged history of the Big Bend Region. The resulting museum experience incorporates visual, audible, tangible, and narrative elements that carry the visitor from prehistory to contemporary culture. Museumscapes distinguished this exhibit with monumental photographic murals, detailed rock work, interactive touch screens, interpretive graphic panels, and innovative artifact presentation.
