Fred E. Field

Frederick E. Field (1861–1931) was an American architect who practiced in Providence, Rhode Island, and Orlando, Florida, in the period between 1883 and 1927.

His professional training took place at Cornell University.

In 1883, Field opened his practice in the city of Providence. In 1902, he took his head draftsman, Harry A. Slocomb, as partner in Field & Slocomb. This firm was dissolved in January 1904, with both returning to independent practice. In 1907, he joined noted architect Howard Hoppin (1856–1940) in the firm of Hoppin & Field. This, in turn, became Hoppin, Field & Peirce in 1922, when Thomas J. Hill Peirce joined the firm. This firm was soon dissolved, and the partners went their separate ways. By the mid-1920s, Field had moved to Orlando. He had opened his own practice there by 1926. In 1927, Charles E. Choate, who had been in Orlando since 1925, took him as partner in Choate & Field. This firm appears to have dissolved soon afterward, as Choate moved to Birmingham that same year. By the time of his death in 1931, Field was once again practicing in Providence.

Field was received into the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects in 1889.
