Joseph Steinkamp[2]
Cincinnati's Lost Architects: Joseph and Bernard Steinkamp Frank Farmer Loomis has led tours of their works. According to Loomis, "Everywhere in Cincinnati their works still beautify the Queen City. Downtown has the Mercantile Library Building, the 21c Museum Hotel, and the Cincinnatian Hotel. Over the Rhine has the stand-out American Building. Their beautiful apartment buildings still grace Price Hill, Walnut Hills, and Hyde Park. Then there is Xavier University and the Chapel at St. Ursula Convent. So many of their buildings (thankfully) still exist and are now designated as restored landmarks."[3]
