Lamb and Rich

Lamb and Rich

Hugh Lamb and Charles Alonzo Rich were partners in the New York City architecture firm of Lamb & Rich, which operated from 1880 to 1899. Some of the buildings they designed that are known today are "Sagamore Hill," Theodore Roosevelt's country house in Oyster Bay, Long Island; the main building of Barnard College in Manhattan (Milbank, Brinckerhoff, and Fiske Halls); Main Building at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn; John M. Greene Hall at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts (and four others there); and "Copshaholm," James D. Oliver's house in South Bend, Indiana. Most of the firm's projects were located within commuting distance of Manhattan, with a significant cluster in New Hampshire, especially at Dartmouth College.
