FIRM HISTORY

   
 

The history of MKC dates back to 1924 when Charles J. Marr opened his architectural practice in New Philadelphia, Ohio. The firm became Marr, Knapp & Crawfis Architects in 1953 with the addition of partners James Knapp and James Crawfis. In 1997 the firm officially became MKC Associates, Inc.

Our firm's heritage is often brought to life by the opportunity to work on buildings originally designed by our founder 80 years ago. As we work from Mr. Marr's original drawings, we are reminded of our responsibility to create facilities today which will continue to exhibit excellence for generations to come.

Mr. Marr's passion for his clients and their communities was demonstrated by his personal involvement in every project. Today MKC continues that tradition through principal-owner involvement in every project. As we celebrate more than eight decades of service, we believe Mr. Marr would be proud of MKC's lasting commitment to clients and their communities.
