SAXE AND MILLERCAC Accession No: 48
 

DESCRIPTION

From 1922 to 1927 Charles Jewett Saxe (1870-1943) and John Melville Miller (1875-1948) practiced architecture from the same Montreal address. Miller was born in Montreal and trained for eight years in the office of the Montreal architect Alexander Francis Dunlop (1842-1923). From 1889 to 1900 Miller worked in Boston. After returning to Montreal Miller practiced in partnership with William Burnet Hutchison (1865-1959) and George Winks Wood (1863-1941) from 1908 until 1918. After his partnership with Hutchison and Wood dissolved Miller practiced alone. Saxe and Miller worked separately except for one project, the 1921 design of a new club house for the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Dorval, PQ. For a biography of Charles Jewett Saxe see the entry for CAC 4.04.
