<p>White was friends with Carl Howell, a young Newark-born architect who was hired by the local real estate developer Warren S. Weiant to design Arts and Crafts bungalows on Hudson Avenue, where White himself moved around 1902. In 1904 White was commissioned by Weiant to record his home at 444 Hudson. Most of the platinum prints of furnished bedrooms, kitchen, porch, study, and hallway are empty, perhaps indicating their intended use as documents of the house. </p>
