He entered the Philadelphia office of Samuel Sloan to gain a rudimentary training in architecture. Later he was associated with Mr. Sloan on the design of a number of public buildings such as St. Charles Borromeo Seminary, built in 1866 and the Connecticut state Hospital at Middleton, 1867.
During the late 1870's Mr. Hutton established his own office in a building at Chestnut and Fifth Streets, and in the course of his career prepared plans for the Ridgway Library, a branch far out on South Broad Street; the Friends’ Selective School at Race and Cherry Streets, a two-story brick structure built in 1885, later enlarged, and also in Philadelphia the new Y M.C. A. Building at Chestnut, Sanson and 15th Streets. For ten years (1877-87) he was official architect for Lehigh University at Bethlehem, Pa., and designed the following buildings for the Campus: Packer Memorial Chapel, Library, 1877, and the Gymnasium.
