William P. Wentworth

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

William Pitt Wentworth (1839–1896), often abbreviated as W.P. Wentworth or William P. Wentworth, was a Vermont-based architect who worked in Boston, but did institutional and ecclesiastic commissions in other areas.[1]

Works by Wentworth that both survive and are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places include:

Mr Wentworth is also credited with designing the private home of James Wilson Hunter, a prominent dry goods merchant and banker in Norfolk, VA in 1894. The home is now a museum for Victorian art and architecture. (https://www.hunterhousemuseum.org/)

Wentworth may be confused with Charles F. Wentworth who was the architect who worked with Ralph Adams Cram.[3]
