Happy Birthday Frank Furness!! American Victorian architect, born in 1839, Furness trained with architect Richard Morris Hunt. He designed over 600 buildings, residential and civic, primarily for the Philadelphia area, in his career spanning over 45 years. His work includes ornate, decorative features set off with a strong design sense in a variety of building materials. Today I am including the Pennsylvania University Library (now called the Fisher Fine Arts Library).
