The Places series is divided into four subseries: Homes, estates, and properties; Delaware/Pennsylvania area; Gardens and parks; and Europe.

The Homes, estates, and properties subseries consists of primarily exterior images of du Pont family homes and other owned properties. There are some images of interiors and non-residential properties. The subseries is listed alphabetically by estate name.

The Delaware/Pennsylvania area subseries includes landscape and city scenes, notable buildings and locations, and roads and is arranged alphabetically. Notably there are images of buildings at Bryn Mawr College dating from 1888 to 1893, presumably from Alice Belin du Pont’s time attending there. There are images of Brandywine scenery in the 1880s through the early 1900s, Wilmington, Delaware landmarks, various area schools, and roads in Unionville, Pennsylvania in the 1920s. There is also a humorous cartoon parodying du Pont family ownership of businesses in Wilmington.

The Gardens and parks subseries consists of images of nature and is arranged alphabetically. There are postcards and photographs from various gardens and parks throughout the United States. There are photographs of beautiful trees and flowers, specifically boxwoods, evergreens, and azaleas. This subseries includes many images of Yellowstone National Park from around the 1900s.

The Europe subseries contains mounted prints of Great Britain and Continental Europe primarily from 1905. Half the subseries relate to France, showing images of significant landmarks and du Pont ancestral estates, in addition to photographs there are engravings, postcards, and drawings. This subseries is arranged alphabetically by country.
