The Southeastern Architectural Archive (SEAA) recently finalized the processing of the Maurice Singer Office Records. The collection consists of architectural renderings, specifications and lot surveys associated with New Orleans architect Maurice Singer (1922-1980), who practiced in southeastern Louisiana from 1946-1980. His office records include project drawings developed by his early firm, Piqué and Singer, established in collaboration with New Orleans architect Harold Eugene Piqué (firm active 1946-53). Singer’s job files also contain copies of architectural renderings created by earlier and contemporary New Orleans architects whose structures he renovated or altered.
