William Colston Albrant, Architect - Fargo, ND

I thought it was about time to offer a little tribute to the original William Colston Albrant. He died at age 35, just two months before his only child, William C. Albrant II, was born.

He was a well-known architect in and around Fargo, ND, and designed some major buildings, including Minard Hall, North Dakota State University, the Robb Lawrence Building, Union Block, Putnam Hall, Mayville Public Library, several churches and schools, and numerous other buildings, many of which are still standing today!

Here's a link to some photos and documents that might be of interest:
