An account of the resource
Francis Richmond Allen was the architect of the Thompson Memorial Chapel at Williams College (1905). This Gothic Revival chapel holds the President James Abram Garfield Memorial Window (1882), one of La Farge's most complex window designs. It was commissioned for the Williams College Chapel and dedicated in 1882. The window was first installed in the Stone Chapel (1859) across the street and moved to the new Thompson Memorial Chapel in 1905. He formed a partnership in 1904 with Charles Collens (d. 1956). Their firm later designed the Riverside Church (1928-1930) and The Cloisters (1934-39) in New York City, and the Newton City Hall and War Memorial (1932).

Charles Brigham was born in Watertown, MA to an old Watertown family. He enlisted in the Union army in September 1862. After hostilities ceased, he started practicing architecture. At the end of the decade he joined John Hubbard Sturgis to form the firm Sturgis & Brigham. Until the untimely death of his partner some twenty years later, the firm proved very successful. They designed the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (1870-76), the Church of the Advent (1894), and many fine private mansions. After Sturgis died, Brigham designed alone and was responsible for a wide variety of styles across America—from California to the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston (1906), a major new wing to the Massachusetts State House, the Maine State House, St. Mark’s Catholic Church, Dorchester, plus many other churches and libraries.

Description
An account of the resource
Born in Pennsylvania, McKim studied architecture at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He returned to the United States in 1872, and worked in the office of H. H. Richardson in New York. In 1877 he joined up with William Rutherford Mead, then two years later with Stanford White to found the architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White. They became the leading architectural practice in the United States, a position they held for many decades. The principals worked together to design Classical and Renaissance-influenced buildings. The firm designed a number of notable buildings, including the Boston Public Library (1887–95), the Rhode Island State House in Providence, Madison Square Garden (1891), the Morgan Library (1903), Pennsylvania Station (1904–10), and the Agricultural Building at the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago (1893). A notable early medieval church design is Saint Paul's Episcopal Church, Stockbridge, Massachusetts, 1883-84. The Judson Memorial Church, New York (1888-93) is a masterful example of the American Renaissance. McKim also took on special projects, such as the restoration of the White House and the revival in 1901 of Pierre l’Enfant’s 1791 plan for Washington, D.C. Personally convinced that aspiring young American architects needed a basis in the European tradition, he was instrumental in founding the American Academy in Rome that he supervised from 1894. The American Institute of Architects awarded him its gold medal in 1909. He was elected an Associate of the American Institute of Architects in 1875, a Fellow in 1877, and its president 1902–03.

Born in Brattleboro, Vermont in August 1846, Mead went to Norwich University and graduated from Amherst College in 1867. He began studying architecture in New York and then spent some time in Florence, Italy. Upon returning to New York, he struck up a professional partnership with Charles F. McKim. Two years later, in 1879, they were joined by Stanford White and named the firm McKim, Mead & White. Together they comprised the leading architectural practice in the United States. Even after the death of the other two principals, Mead continued to head the firm, which worked on many prestigious projects. In 1913 Mead became the first architect to be awarded the gold medal from the Academy of Arts and Letters. Among many other honors, he became a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, and president of the New York Chapter between 1907-08. King Victor Emmanuel made him a Knight Commander of the Crown of Italy in 1922 for his contribution to the introduction of Roman and Italian Renaissance architectural styles to America. A notable early medieval design by their firm is Saint Paul's Episcopal Church, Stockbridge, Massachusetts, 1883-84. Judson Memorial Church on Washington Square in New York (1888-93) is a masterful example of the American Renaissance.

Description
An account of the resource
Born in New York City into a wealthy and well-educated family, Renwick initially studied engineering at Columbia University. He graduated in 1836, already interested in architecture but with no formal training. His first major commission came in 1843 to design Grace Church in New York City. Three years later he was working on Romanesque designs for Robert Dale Owen, director of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Renwick designed a medieval castle that was built 1846–49 of red sandstone. Other work was for Vassar College’s main hall (1860) in Poughkeepsie, several churches, banks, hospitals, and asylums. He also designed a number of private houses for wealthy New Yorkers. Already known as a designer of churches, Renwick was asked in 1853 by Archbishop Hughes to design St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York, a job that turned out to be a long and much-delayed project. In 1855 Renwick journeyed to Europe where he particularly studied the great French Gothic cathedrals. His original design for St Patrick’s was a grandiose Gothic scheme, which was not fully realized. The church was dedicated in 1879, and completed in 1888. Renwick was also the architect of St. Barnabas Church, Irvington, NY (1863), with a notable window by John La Farge.
