- Charles_Crapsey abstract "Charles C. Crapsey (1849–1909) was an American architect known for his church designs. He trained under James K. Wilson from 1865–1873, worked on his own between 1873–1888, and then with Wilson again from 1895-1901. He worked with William R. Brown from 1889–1895 and with E. N. Lamm from 1901-1909. His work is distinctive for its creative combinations of shaping, massing, and materials, and Crapsey is known especially for his design of churches. He was born in Fairmount, Ohio and died in Cincinnati.[citation needed]Crapsey began his career working mainly on the design of residences. He designed the Shingle Style Nathan F. Baker House on Madison Rd. in East Walnut Hills (1883) for the sculptor and relative of Crapsey's mentor James K. Wilson. A print and floor plan of the house appeared in the June 9, 1883 American Architect and Building News. He also designed a "Five-Thousand-Dollar Suburban Home" in the Cincinnati suburb of Hartwell in 1886, and some commercial buildings.Crapsey & Brown specialized in church architecture. Crapsey belonged to the Methodist church and obtained several commissions for their buildings. Brown had already been doing church design before they teamed up. According to the Architectural Foundation of Cincinnati, "They were among the first firm to exploit the "Akron Plan", which included Sunday School rooms within the main Church building connected by moveable screens." These "were sought after by many Protestant denominations, not only in Ohio and Kentucky, but as far as a $300,000 Presbyterian Church for Seattle, Washington" which was designed by Crapsey & Lamm in 1906. He and his partners also designed church-related educational buildings including a dormitory for Ohio Wesleyan College (Delaware, Ohio) in 1889 and Methodist missionary schools and chapels in China.Crapsey's obituary in the Western Architect & Builder "made a specialty of church architecture, and as much as, perhaps more, than any other architect of the country, developed the institutional church building," and an obituary in The Western Christian Advocate described Crapsey as "an architect by instinct and training." Honorary pallbearers representing the American Institute of ARchitects included James W. McLaughlin, S.S. Godley, and George W. Rapp, "all major Cincinnati architects during the second half of the 19th century". Real pallbearers were selected from members of his Bible class.A double-page magazine feature of Crapsey & Brown's churches was published in the American Architect & Building News, XXXVIII, 822 November 19, 1892, including examples in Cincinnati and Kenton, Ohio, and Maysville, Mayslick, Carlisle, Covington, and Dayton, Kentucky. They were also active in Hamilton, Ohio and Winchester, Kentucky (where Lamm seems to have been a builder, and perhaps designer, early in his career). The spread also included prices such as $27,000 Kenton, Ohio church and $10,000 for the Price Hill Cincinnati church with "stones to window sills and shingles above".Crapsey & Brown used a wide variety of materials, often in combination achieving great variety in shape, massing, and effect. Crapsey competed for the design of the Cincinnati Centennial Exposition building (1887; won by H.E. Siter; expo held 1888) and the Cincinnati Armory (won by Samuel Hannaford; 1887).".
