WHITE, George William (1877- c. 1935) was active in Montreal and joined the Province of Quebec Assoc. of Architects in 1919. Born in South Shields, Co. Durham, England in February 1877, he emigrated to Canada in 1908 and settled in Montreal. He may have trained with Frank Peden before WW1, and in 1923 he was recorded as a designer in his office. His best known work there was a Tudor Revival design for the New Mount Clair Apartments on Lincoln Avenue (1926-26). Few references have been found to his work after 1930, and he later sailed for England in 1938 (inf. ANQ, records of the Prov. of Quebec Assoc. of Architects).
