W. H. Weeks
William Henry Weeks (1864–1936) was an early 20th-century architect who designed hundreds of buildings including many schools, banks, and libraries. He was well known for his monumental Greek Revival neoclassical style of architecture, although he also employed other architectural styles. His offices were based in various parts of the San Francisco Bay area throughout his career. Weeks designed hundreds of structures in over 161 Californian cities, as well as several buildings in Nevada and Oregon. Many of his buildings are still standing and some are still in use.〔Betty Lewis, ''W.H. Weeks: Architect'', Fresno: Panorama West, 1985, ISBN 0-914330-85-3, pp. 47-57 lists all Weeks' buildings and their current condition, if known.〕
