This father and son designed most of Troy's important buildings, not just downtown, but other Troy neighborhoods as well. Yet we know very little about them.
Some lovely buildings! I am normally a big fan of Richardsonian Romanesque but Russell Sage Hall slightly misses the mark for me. The cornice and roofline just seems a bit off.
