One of their earliest projects was a shooting range and bowling alley for the Schuetzen Park on Belair Road near the then Baltimore City limits, following work Lupus had done at the park in 1866.
The Schuetzen Association included 800 members from firstand second-generation German families. The pair continued to work primarily within the German community, designing the Baltimore General German Orphan Asylum at Orleans and Aisquith Streets in 1873 and the Hebrew Orphan Asylum in 1874.
Edward Lupus died at his home in Sextonville, Baltimore County on February 13, 1877 at the age of 43 following a three month illness.
