The Brooklyn Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, a not for profit organization, ranks seventeenth of the 300+ chapters nationwide in seniority. Its formation was unusual for its time. The Institute was struggling to establish itself as the sole national organization of architects; most chapters were centered in major cities and were widely dispersed throughout the country. The two other chapters that were also started in 1894 were Southern California (now Los Angeles) and Washington State (now Seattle) Both chapters covered a vast geographical areas and yet had less members than Brooklyn. Our founding fathers felt that Brooklyn was large enough to be independent from the New York chapter.
