Proudfoot, Bird and Rawson


Proudfoot & Bird et al. was an American architectural firm or partnership that designed many buildings in the U.S. Midwest. Partners included Willis Thomas Proudfoot (1860–1928) (who also went by W.T. or Willis T., and, confusingly, by William T.) and George Washington Bird (1854–1953) and Harry Dustan Rawson (1872–1934). At times it was known as Proudfoot, Bird and Rawson, Proudfoot, Rawson & Souers, Proudfoot, Rawson, Souers & Thomas or Monheim, Bird & Proudfoot.

A large number of their buildings which survive are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Many or all of these were listed as part of one 1988 study and multiple property submission. In 1988 there were 25 known surviving Proudfoot, Bird & Rawson buildings in Des Moines alone.
