Marc Eidlitz
Marc Eidlitz (21 January 1826 in Prague – 15 April 1892) was a builder active in New York City, where he was prominent in the construction industry, in partnership with his son.〔Biographical information is drawn from his obituary, ''The New York Times'', 16 April 1892.〕
==Biography==
Marc was born Markus to a Jewish family in Prague, Bohemia. He emigrated to the United States in 1846 with his mother Judith Eidlitz after the death of his father Abraham. Having served a four-years apprenticeship, he set up in business for himself in 1852 - the year of his marriage - and founded the construction firm, Marc Eidlitz & Son Builders N.Y.C. in New York, which built the St. Regis Hotel and many other projects.
Through his influence, the Masons Builders' Association of New York played a major role in founding the National Association of Builders. In New York he was President of the Building Trades' Club and of the Germanic Savings Bank.
Eidlitz made his home at 123 East 72nd Street, where he died. He had four sons and a daughter. His brother Leopold Eidlitz was a well-known architect, as was Leopold's son, Cyrus L. W. Eidlitz. Marc converted to Catholicism and kept close ties to the German immigrant community, becoming president of Germania Bank in 1888.〔 Kathryn E.
