Credited with designing:

  1. The Beacon Hotel and Theatre on Manhattan’s Upper West Side
  2. The Carew Tower in downtown Cincinnati, which remains the tallest building in that city today.
  3. A 42 story tower commissioned by the Shrine Organization to become the future home of the Medinah Athletic Club in Chicago, the birthplace of the skyscraper. Although his selection for the latter project had been the result of a design competition, it was widely speculated that with so many other notable buildings on his resume, his appointment was practically preordained.

This tower would later house the InterContinental Chicago.
