AAndrew Jackson Downing (October 31, 1815 July 28, 1852) was an American landscape designer, horticulturist, writer, prominent advocate of the Gothic Revival in the United States, and editor of The Horticulturist magazine (18461852). Downing is considered to be a founder of American landscape architecture. By the mid-1840s Downing's reputation and celebrity were established. This brought a friendship with Luther Tucker, publisher and printer of Albany, New York, who hired Downing to edit a new journal. The Horticulturist and Journal of Rural Art and Rural Taste was first published under Downing's editorship in the summer of 1846; he remained editor of this journal until his death in 1852. The journal was his principal influence on society through horticulture, pomology, botany, entomology, rural architecture, landscape gardening, and, unofficially, public welfare in various forms. It was in this journal that Downing first argued for a New York Park, which in time became Central Park. In it, Downing argued for state agricultural schools, which eventually gave rise. This was not a farmer's magazine but rather a publication for horticultural enthusiasts, typically "gentleman farmers." They were the audience for whom a "country villa" might be an appropriate aspiration, but who also might encourage improvements in rural architecture by building small, picturesque cottages on their property for workmen and their families. In 1853, the City of New York used the power of eminent domain to acquire 778 acres from 59th Street to 106th Street that would comprise Central Park. Ten years later, the park would extend to 110th Street. 1,600 people living on this land as renters or squatters were evicted along with a school and three churches. Downing gave birth to Central Park and landscape architecture in America. His partner, Calvert Vaux teamed up with Frederick Law Olmsted to create and execute a concept fo.

Andrew Jackson Downing (October 31, 1815 July 28, 1852) was an American landscape designer, horticulturist, writer, prominent advocate of the Gothic Revival in the United States, and editor of The Horticulturist magazine (1846 1852). Downing is considered to be a founder of American landscape architecture. By the mid-1840s Downing's reputation and celebrity were established. This brought a friendship with Luther Tucker, publisher and printer of Albany, New York, who hired Downing to edit a new journal. The Horticulturist and Journal of Rural Art and Rural Taste was first published under Downing's editorship in the summer of 1846; he remained editor of this journal until his death in 1852. The journal was his principal influence on society through horticulture, pomology, botany, entomology, rural architecture, landscape gardening, and, unofficially, public welfare in various forms. It was in this journal that Downing first argued for a New York Park, which in time became Central Park. In it, Downing argued for state agricultural schools, which eventually gave rise. Downing worked to educate and influence his readers in his view of refined taste regarding architecture, landscape design, and even moral issues. In 1845, Downing was elected into the National Academy of Design as an Honorary Academician. A.J. Downing was offered the editorship of The Horticulturist in 1846, due to his extensive knowledge of plants as well as his growing fame from the publication of his books. He used the position to promote his ideas on improving rural architecture, and over the years, included several editorial essays on the topic. The magazine also covered news of plants and was notable for its extensive (for the time) etched and lithographed illustrations. This was not a farmer s magazine but rather a publication for horticultural enthusiasts, typically gentleman farmers. They were the audience for whom a country villa might be an appropriate aspiration, but who also might encourage improvements in rural architecture by building small, picturesque cottages on their property for workmen and their families.
