Schickel & Ditmars was an architectural firm in New York City, active during the city's Gilded Age from 1885 until the early 1900s. It was responsible for designing many fine churches, residences and commercial buildings.

History

[edit]

J. William Schickel (1850–1907) formed the firm in 1885 as William Schickel & Company, in association with Isaac E. Ditmars (1850–1934) and Hugo Kafka (1843–1913). The firm's name changed to Schickel and Ditmars in 1895, and continued under the direction of Ditmars after Schickel's death in 1907. The firm "enjoyed considerable patronage from German-American clients" and produced a large number of works for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York.[1] The firm "focused primarily, although not exclusively, on preparing designs for Roman Catholic churches and institutional buildings," particularly Roman Catholic churches for German-American parishes.[2] The firm's address was listed at 111 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

Schickel & Ditmars were the architects responsible for much of Lenox Hill Hospital (under its previous name, "The German Hospital") as it grew into its present location on the Upper East Side.

The prominent architect and artist Harold Van Buren Magonigle was counted amongst the firm's employees.[3]
