James Wardrop was born in 1891 and died on 25 July 1975 at the age of 84.〔http://www.skhs.org.au/SKHSbuildings/6.htm〕 Both architects were veterans who served in the war and moved on to study under Charles D'Ebro.〔St Kilda Historical Society Inc. (2005) “A Place of Sensuous Resort, Buildings of St Kilda and Their People,6,St Kilda Soldiers’ & Sailors’ Memorial hall Building 88-90A Acland Street, St Kilda.” Retrieved 2010-04-05〕 The Australian established architects are well known for their designs of chapels, universities, colleges, factories, hotels, and public monuments in Melbourne, the Shrine of Remembrance being the most prominent out of the few. They were also responsible for the compiling of The National War Memorial of Victoria: the first brochure on the first permeated design.〔Hudson and Wardrop “The national war memorial of Victoria : the first brochure on the first premiated design compiled by Hudson & Wardrop architects, Melbourne” Retrieved 2010-04-05〕 ==Hudson & Wardrop== After forming an alliance in 1919, Hudson and Wardrop entered the competition for the national War Memorial in 1923 and won first prize. The Shrine is known to be Melbourne’s most important Public Monument.〔The Collector (2007-03-22) “The Shrine of Remembrance” Retrieved 2010-04-06〕 The design for the shrine was based on the Parthenon in Athens and the tomb of Mausolus, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus〔Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, “Mausoleum of Halicarnassus” Retrieved 2010-04-05 and Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, “Mausoleum of Halicarnassus” Retrieved 2010-04-05〕 and symbolizes both the democratic tradition for which the soldiers died and the eternity of their afterlife. In 1929 Hudson and Wardrop partnered with Architect and Engineer Kingsley Ussher particularly to check calculations for the ‘eye of light’ at the shrine. In 1946 Robert F. Howden joined the firm as junior partner. A year later Stevenson joined to form Hudson Stevenson Partners. The sudden death of Hudson and the illness of Stevenson lead Howden to run the practice. Hugh McLean joined, renaming the firm Hudson Stevenson Howden & McLean. Howden became senior partner followed by the death of Stevenson and the firm became both Architects and engineers. It was renamed Howden and McLean and now continues as Howden & Wardrop Pty Ltd, Architects & Engineers at 24 Albert Road South Melbourne.〔
