ABOUT THE ARCHITECT, LEWIS EDMOND “BUCK” CROOK<br />
Lewis E. Crook graduated from the Georgia Tech Department of Architecture in 1919. In 1922 he accompanied his mentor Neil<br />
Reid, renowned architect, on a European sketching tour. Later he partnered with fellow Georgia Tech Architecture grad Ernest<br />
Daniel Ivey to create the Architectural firm Ivey & Crook. They would go on to practice architecture together for nearly a half<br />
century leaving a lasting legacy and architectural imprint on the city - both in domestic and commercial architecture. Widely<br />
known for his work in Druid Hills and on the Emory Campus, Crook adapted historical styles for his designs and remained<br />
true to the classics emphasizing Jeffersonian or Southern classicism. Ivey & Crook remained traditionalists until the partner’s<br />
deaths in late 1966 and early 1967. Today, <strong>1284</strong> <strong>Fairview</strong> <strong>Road</strong> is a lasting testament to the great accomplishments of this gifted<br />
architectural duo and to Crook who was a significant contributor to classicism in the first half of this century.
