- Warren_R._Briggs abstract "Warren R. Briggs was an American architect who worked in Bridgeport, Connecticut. He was a "native of Boston" and trained at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. His work was greatly influenced by H. H. Richardson.He was inventor of the baseball catcher's mask.In 1899, he authored Modern American School Buildings--Being A Treatise Upon And Designs For The Construction of School Buildings."In 1909, in his book Modern American School Buildings, Warren Briggs comments:As to the exterior, it seems to me that a school building should show some idea of architectural proportion and symmetry; because a structure is designed for simple and homely purposes it does not follow that it must be unsurpassingly ugly; yet how few of the village schools that dot the pleasant landscape of our country are pleasing to look upon? It is true that they have the simplest of lines and are usually built of the homeliest materials; but even with these drawbacks, well-studied lines and carefully proportioned masses combined with the plainest materials may in skillful hands make a village school building a thing of beauty."He designed the Connecticut Building in the World's Columbian ExpositionBuildings he designed which survive and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places include:Fairfield County Courthouse (Bridgeport, Connecticut), 172 Golden Hill St., Bridgeport, CT, built in 1888Fairfield County Courthouse (Danbury, Connecticut)Locust Avenue School, Locust Ave., Danbury, CTSeaside Institute, 299 Lafayette Ave., Bridgeport, CTOne or more buildings in Walnut Hill District, New Britain, CTOne or more buildings in Barnum-Palliser Development Historic District, Bridgeport, CT↑ 1.0 1.1 ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑".
