HAROLD F. ADAMS
Many beautiful and artistic buildings, including churches and cottages throughout
Atlantic County stand as monuments to the skill of Harold F. Adams as an architect.
Mr. Adams who has an office in the Real Estate and Law Building, is a son of
Charles E. Adams, and was born in Camden County, August 3, 1868.  He was a student of
the Williamstown public schools until he moved with his parents to this city, in 1876.
He continued his studies here, and after graduating from a business college, he became
an electrician, which occupation he followed for several years. In 1892 he entered the
office of the late William G. Hoopes as a draughtsman and architect, becoming, after a
few years, a silent partner. In 1897 he graduated as an architect from the University of
Pennsylvania, and immediately afterward opened an office for himself in this city
[Atlantic City]. Besides numerous cottages, the Young amusement building on the beach,
St. Peter's R.C. Church at Pleasantville, and Harry Wootton's fine cottage at Longport,
and the remodeling of the Seaside.
