Architect Joseph Evans Sperry was born in 1854 in Georgetown, South Carolina. He later relocated to Baltimore, Maryland, where he partnered with James Bosley Noel Wyatt to form the architectural firm Wyatt and Sperry. Their affiliation lasted from 1878 to 1887.〔AIA Baltimore A Chapter History from 1870-2005, Charles Belfoure, pg. 91〕 The two probably became acquainted while working in the office of Architect, E. Francis Baldwin, where he worked from 1872 until 1876.〔〔Biography of James Bosley Noel Wyatt ()/〕 With Wyatt, he designed a number of buildings around Baltimore before breaking off on his own. Sperry became one of Baltimore's leading architects, designing many public buildings, including churches, hospitals, and banks. In 1914 he was named an AIA Fellow.〔 Sperry also designed several buildings at Johns Hopkins University and one building at West Virginia University. Sperry's most famous building is probably the Emerson "Bromo-Seltzer" Tower in Baltimore. Sperry's buildings were designed in a variety of styles, but overall were eclectic. Sperry practiced architecture independently from 1888 until he died in 1930.〔 ==Selected works== *1891: Equitable Building, Baltimore, Maryland *1892: The Eutaw Place Temple of congregation Oheb Shalom *1896: Brewers Exchange, Baltimore, Maryland *1897: St. Mark's Lutheran Church, Baltimore, Maryland *1911: Emerson "Bromo-Seltzer" Tower, Baltimore, Maryland *1917: Whitehall, Narragansett, Rhode Island *1930: Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association Building, Baltimore, Maryland 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Evans Sperry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
