Edwin A. Quick (1841-1913) was an American architect practicing in Yonkers, New York, directly north of New York City.

Life and career

Edwin Quick was born in 1841 in Rhinebeck, New York, where he attended the Rhinebeck Academy. He studied architecture,[1] and worked as a construction superintendent in New York in the 1860s and 1870s, working for Gilman & Kendall, J. William Schickel, and Renwick & Sands.[2] He moved to Yonkers in April, 1874.[1] He was practicing independently as an architect by 1882.[3] Circa 1891 he made his son, H. Lansing Quick, a partner in the firm, which became Edwin A. Quick & Son. The two practiced together until 1913, upon the elder Quick's death.

Quick died on October 19, 1913, at his home in Yonkers.[2]
