Starting Out

William Boegel was an architect who designed many buildings for the Roman Catholic Church in the 20th century. I have an archive of the buildings that he designed, and am hoping to post updated pictures of these buildings.

In the 1960's, William Boegel worked with Edward Allodi, and had their offices at 609 5th Avenue in Manhattan.
