John Calvin Stevens (October 8, 1855 – January 25, 1940) was an American architect who worked in the Shingle Style, in which he was a major innovator, and the Colonial Revival style. He designed more than 1,000 buildings in the state of Maine. ==Early life== Stevens was the son of Maria Wingate and Leander Stevens, a cabinet maker and builder of fancy carriages.〔(Stevens Genealogy )〕 He was born in Boston, Massachusetts, but when he was two, his family moved to Portland, Maine.〔(Stephen Abbott, ''John Calvin Stevens, the Early Years,'' Maine Home & Design 2007 )〕 Stevens wanted to study architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but lacked the money to attend. Instead, he apprenticed in the Portland office of architect Francis H. Fassett, who in 1880 made him a junior partner to open the firm's new Boston office. Another architect working in the same building was William Ralph Emerson, whose historicist aesthetic in the Queen Anne Style had a profound effect on Stevens. He married Martha Louise Waldron in 1877, and they had four children. Stevens opened his own office in Portland in 1884.
