Edit ProfileEducation
Kimball graduated from Portland High School in 1869.
Career
His family moved to Portland when he was very young. By 1871 he was working for George M. Harding, a local architect. In 1874 he left Portland for Lewiston and established a practice with George M. Coombs, a native of that city.
Kimball & Coombs dissolved later that year, and Kimball had opened his own office in Portland by 1875.
He practiced alone until 1887, his death. He is notable as one of the only Maine architects to embrace the Stick Style.
