THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe architectural profession deservedly occupies a prominent position in the metropolis, and it, has no better representative than Mr. James Stroud, of No. 1207 Broadway. He first commenced the practice of his profession about twenty-five years ago, and has thus had vast practical experience in what is admittedly one of the most exacting and important branches of scientific and artistic activity. About fourteen years ago he located his offices at their present address in Broadway, and has built up a reputation of the highest character alike as an honorable business man and a most talented and reliable architect. Proofs of Mr. Stroud's skill and capacity are so numerous, as embodied in the many edifices he has erected in all parts of the city and country, that we can allude to but a few of them in the limits of this article. He built the architecturally beautiful Reformed Episcopal Church, corner of Madison Avenue and 55th Street; the Reformed Church of Fordham, so much indebted for its existence to the liberality of Mr. H. B. Claflin; flat houses and private dwellings innumerable, among them being eleven fine buildings just finished at 154th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue (owned by Hon. John Kelly), the Cozzens Apartment Building in 17th Street, near Broadway, the elegant residence of Mrs. Anthony, at Fordham, and many others of the most striking and beautiful structures in this section. Mr. Stroud devotes all his energies to his favorite profession, and conscientiously discharges his duties to all favoring him with commissions. He employs a full force of talented draughtsmen and his plans are always complete in detail and accurate, while his estimates and calculations are based on the most practical and comprehensive knowledge of quantities and values. As a New Yorker, so closely identified with its material progress, Mr. Stroud has secured the confidence and esteem of all by whom he is known.
