Editors' Note
This architectural seating is named in recognition of Beverly Lorraine Greene, the first African American woman to become a licensed architect in the United States. Born in 1915 in Chicago, her family arrived in the city as part of the Great Migration. Entering the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1932 to study architecture, Greene became the only member of the American Society of Civil Engineers to be either African American or female. She quickly attracted attention as a rising star in the field, making connections with such luminaries as Paul R. Williams and A. L. Foster, a prominent figure with high ranks in both the Chicago Council of Negro Organizations and the Chicago Urban League. These connections helped her to find employment with the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) after graduation. Though not fully licensed until 1942, Greene worked on the 1662-unit Ida B. Wells housing project, which opened in 1941. Later work included projects for several institutions of higher education including the University of Arkansas, Sarah Lawrence College and NYU. In 1954, while at Marcel Breuer and Associates, Greene would work on the Secretariat and Conference Hall at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. On her own, she renovated a 2-story building in Harlem purchased by Dr. C. B. Powell, owner of the New York Amsterdam News, to create The Unity Funeral Home. Opened in the Summer of 1953, the mortuary would receive over 30,000 visitors in 1965 as it held the remains of Malcolm X for a 2-day wake following his death. Sadly, Greene would herself pass away in 1957 following a brief illness. She was 41 years old. Though her career was brief she left an enduring legacy in the history of Black builders and American architecture and design.
