Muhlenberg Greene Architects, Ltd. is a full-service architecture firm, in continuous operation since 1920, and was one of the predominant architecture/engineering firms in Reading, Pennsylvania, during the first half of the 20th century. Muhlenberg Greene Architects was originally established in 1920 as Frederick A. Muhlenberg, Registered Architect. Since its founding, Muhlenberg Greene Architects lists over 3,500 commissions to its credit,〔Muhlenberg Greene Architects. ("History" ), ''Muhlenberg Greene Architects'', Retrieved on 13 May 2013.〕 including many Reading landmarks, such as Berks Heim, the Reading Medical Arts Building, and Stokesay Castle. == Founder == The original founder of Muhlenberg Greene Architects, Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg II, FAIA was renowned for his endeavors in architecture, politics, community, social services, and the military. Although Frederick Muhlenberg opened an office in Philadelphia around 1917-1919,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.philadelphiabuildings.org/pab/app/ar_display.cfm/26286 )〕 by 1920, the practice was located exclusively in Reading, and the firm continued through several reorganizations to its present form as Muhlenberg Greene Architects, Ltd.

Officially retiring from the firm in 1977, one week after his 90th birthday, Mr. Muhlenberg still came to the office daily until physical limitations prevented him from doing so about a year later. Fred Muhlenberg died on January 19, 1980, at 92 years of age. 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「Muhlenberg Greene Architects」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
