Joseph C. Hoxie (14 August 1814 – 9 January 1870) was an American architect.[1]
Early life
[edit]He was born in Rhode Island.[1]
Career
[edit]Hoxie was trained to the buildings trade in Connecticut and was working in Hoboken, New Jersey, by 1840.[1]
He moved to Philadelphia and formed a partnership with his brother-in-law Stephen Decatur Button in 1848.[1] The partnership was dissolved in 1852 though they occasionally collaborated on some projects afterwards.[1]
In November 1852 Norris Garshom Starkweather started working for Hoxie and they became partners in 1854.[1] The partnership broke down and it was dissolved in July 1854.[1] The Court of common pleas records a case filed in August 1854 to divide the assets of the partnership though this case was not resolved in 1858.[1]
After returning to independent practice he designed railroad stations and churches.[1] Harrisburg station (built 1857, demolished 1877) and Arch Street Presbyterian Church are examples of his work.[1]
