From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francis Hatch Kimball (1845-1919) was an American architect best known for his work on skyscrapers in lower Manhattan, including the still extant Corbin Building on John Street. Kimball was a pioneer in the use of ornamental terra-cotta in the United States, evident still on the Corbin Building, on a striking row of townhouses that he designed at 133-143 West 122nd Street in Harlem, and on the Montauk Club in Park Slope, Brooklyn.
