Past Presidents of the
Westchester/Mid-Hudson Chapter AIA

In celebration of the AIA150 we would like to thank our own past members who have served in the role of AIA Westchester/Mid-Hudson Chapter President.  

History of The American Institute of Architects

On February 23, 1857, 13 architects met in Richard Upjohn's office to form what would become The American Institute of Architects. The group sought to create an architecture organization that would "promote the scientific and practical perfection of its members" and "elevate the standing of the profession."

Until this point, anyone who wished to call him-or herself an architect could do so. This included masons, carpenters, bricklayers, and other members of the building trades. No schools of architecture or architectural licensing laws existed to shape the calling.
