Burroughs, S. Harry

BURROUGHS, S. Harry (fl. 1909-1912) was active in Calgary, Alta. where he was in partnership with John B. Richards. Together they designed a number of commercial and residential works in downtown Calgary and in the Riverside neighbourhood of the city. By late 1913 their collaboration had ended, and Richards continued to work in Calgary under his own name, and was later appointed as City Architect for Calgary in 1917. No information can found on Burroughs after 1913 (inf. Calgary City Directory, 1910, 64, advert.; inf. Barry Elmer, Calgary)
