Century Memorial

Edward H. Kendall was an architect of recognized standing in his profession, with a large amount of work to his credit in this city, chiefly business structures of importance. He received his early schooling and much of his professional education abroad, and had a noteworthy acquaintance with the French language, literature, and architecture. He enjoyed the confidence and respect of his associates, was the fourth President of the American Institute of Architects, and was chosen to preside over the World’s Convention of Architects at Chicago in 1894. He served The Century at various times as Trustee and on the Committee of Admissions, and was deeply attached to the Club and its associations. He was a kindly companion, of refined tastes and unfailing consideration for others. A man of unusual physical vigor and devoted to out-door life, his sudden death at the age of fifty-nine [sic] was a severe shock to a large circle of friends.
