Atkinson and McLay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Atkinson and McLay was an architectural partnership in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It produced a number of significant works and is the origins of one of Brisbane's major architectural firms in the present day.

History

[edit]

The partnership between Henry Wallace Atkinson and Charles McLay was established in 1907. The practice subsequently assumed the position of Diocesan Architect to the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane, designing a number of schools and churches in South East Queensland.[1] The partnership lasted until McLay's death in 1918.[2] However, the firm continued to remain prominent in Queensland, evolving into the present day firm of Conrad Gargett.
