Edit ProfileCareer
He worked as draftsman in the offices of Clinton Day and Reid Brothers, and in the early part of the century began practice for himself. Farr earned his architecture license in 1901, one of the very first in California. He took on a partner in 1922, eventually naming his firm Farr & Ward. Farr and his firm designed buildings throughout the Bay Area, particularly in the San Francisco neighborhoods of Russian Hill, Pacific Heights, Sea Cliff, and St. Francis Wood. Many of his designs involve a facade of brown wooden shingles.
