Summary:

Drawings and blueprints of Holy Cross Church, Allentown College of St. Francis de Sales / Dormitory, and Partial Drawing of an Inscription for St. Columba's School.

This record is parent to architectural project records for the works of Rowe & Dagit, Henry D. Dagit, 1865-1929 practicing by himself from ca. 1896 to 1915. Also included are the works from corporate successor firms Henry D. Dagit & Son, and also Henry D. Dagit & Sons, including the three Dagit sons, Henry D. Dagit, Jr., 1893-1982, Albert F. Dagit, 1899- , and Charles E. Dagit, 1902- , and various other Dagit family members. Two additional corporate names are represented on the materials, Dagit Associates, which appears to have been a property development company, and Dagit Brothers, a real estate and/or construction company. These firms appear to have existed as separate corporations as the same time as the architectural firms.
