Col. John Thomas Fanning (1837-1911) was an American architect and hydraulic engineer. Fanning was born in Norwich, Connecticut. In 1861 he enlisted, and participated in the United States Civil War until his discharge. After the war, he returned to Norwich, soon establishing an office for the practice of engineering. In 1872 he moved to Manchester, New Hampshire to design that city's new municipal water system.〔''Carpenter and Bean Block NRHP Nomination''. 2002.〕 By 1877 he established a second office as an architect.〔''The New-Hampshire Register, Farmer's Almanac and Business Directory for 1877''. 1877.〕 By 1885 he had begun to get several commissions in the west, warranting a move to Minneapolis. He served in many professional capacities as a hydraulic engineer, including consulting for many railroads.〔"Fanning, John Thomas". ''A Half Century of Minneapolis''. Ed. Horace B. Hudson. 1908.〕 After his move from Manchester, he did not practice as an architect again. ==Architecture== * Dunlap Building, 967 Elm St., Manchester, NH (1879)〔''Dunlap Building NRHP Nomination''. 2004.〕〔''Engineering and Mining Journal'' 22 May 1880: 358.〕 * First Congregational Church, 508 Union St., Manchester, NH (1879-80)〔〔Chalmers, John.
