Frank Thayer: An Architect’s Story
Originally presented by Rose Moudry as part of our 2020–2021 Lunchbox Lecture Series, this fascinating program explores the life and work of architect Frank Thayer. Best known locally for designing the Dinehart Holt House and the State Bank of Slayton Building (now the Left Bank Café), Thayer’s story goes far beyond these familiar landmarks.
Who was Frank Thayer? What was his life like? What other buildings did he design—and what became of him? Rose Moudry dives into these questions and more in her in-depth presentation.
