Neo-gothic
Neo-gothic architecture is an American branch of the Gothic revival style that was imported from England in the 1830s. It is a broad term and includes the Victorian gothic and late gothic styles. In theory, the style lasted until the Art Deco movement of the 1930s, but in practice architectural design based on classical forms continues to the present day.
Important neo-gothic architects and architectural firms:
- Ralph Adams Cram
- Cram, Goodhue and Ferguson – New York
- Cass Gilbert
- Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue
- H. Craig Severance - New York
- Hood & Howells
- Robert S. DeGolyer & Co. - Chicago
