Hentz, Reid, and Adler (Atlanta, Ga.)
Biographical notes:
The Atlanta architecture firm Hentz, Reid and Adler are known in the Southeast for their Beaux-Arts style and as the founding fathers of the Georgia school of classicism. The firm began in 1909 as Norrman, Hentz and Reid. However, shortly after its foundation, partner Gottfried L. Norrman died and the firm became known simply as Hentz and Reid. Rudolph S. Adler became a partner in 1913, creating Hentz, Reid and Adler. In 1927, after Reid's death the year before, Philip T. Shutze became a partner in the firm, then known as Hentz, Adler and Shutze. Hentz retired in 1944 and William Armistead became a partner, shifting the firm's name to Shutze, Armistead and Adler for one year until the death of Adler. The firm of Shutze and Armistead continued until 1950 when Armistead retired. Shutze retired in 1958. Neel Reid was the principal designer for Hentz, Reid and Adler and as such was responsible for most of the design output of the firm.
