A Student of Corbu's in Nutley

IN 2020, Glenn Mariconda and Asaka Midorikawa had lived in Brooklyn for almost 20 years. After their son, Jonah, was born, they were looking for a mid-century house outside the city, one that hadn’t been messed up in renovation, and they were having a hard time finding anything they liked. Until they drove by this one in a Nutley, New Jersey, neighborhood of mostly starter Colonials.

They came back the next day to tour the property. Its listing mentioned the architect of the house, Edward T. Bowser Jr. “I had never heard of him,” says Mariconda, a fashion executive. “And it said that he had worked for Le Corbusier.” It was in pristine condition, its heritage intact, and they bought it. “When the house was first built, there was nothing there,” Mariconda adds, “and all you could probably see was the Manhattan skyline.”
