"Ernest Flagg (1857-1947) was a rare figure among his contemporaries. His architecture, which includes such famous institutions as the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C., and the U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, as well as the landmark Scribner Building and bookstore in New York City, presents a fuller range of Beaux-Arts principles than does the work of any other American architect. His commitment to urban reform and improved low-cost housing was so strong that it influenced permanently many of New York's policies in these areas." (dj).
