Hapgood, have probably not received so much attention since the late 19th century, when the cousins were at the height of their practice. They designed stately homes in the city's West End, and Edward's commissions included the Rossia Insurance Company Building and (with Donn Barber) the original Travelers Insurance Company Buildings the State Library and Supreme Court Building.”*
