Francis W. Grant
Quarter-length portrait of Francis W. Grant. Little is know about the formal training and background of architect Francis W. Grant. Born in 1868 in Ontario, Canada, Grant migrated with his parents to the U.S. at an early age and became a naturalized citizen in 1875. In 1897 he was hired as the "Superintendent of Construction" for the Wisconsin State Historical Society Building in Madison City, Wisconsin. After the project was completed in 1900, Grant began work for the U.S. Treasury Department residing in New York City. In 1903 his duties took him to Seattle, where he served as Superintendent of Construction for the post office and other federal projects. |
