The Estate of Albert Bela Bauer

Image for Collection The Estate of Albert Bela Bauer

Albert Bela Bauer was highly regarded for his work in architecture and contributions to public buildings in New York City. Born in 1899 in Hungary, Bauer came to the United States at the age of 35 with a degree in architecture and engineering from the German Technological Institute, School of Civil Engineering and Architecture in Austria. He began his professional practice in Florida, but soon moved to New York starting to work in Albany before coming to New York City. From 1936 to 1969 he worked as the Director of Architecture in the Department of Public Works, designing and participating in the construction of hospitals, libraries, fire and police stations, and more. An advocate for the arts and a painter himself, Bauer dedicated himself to the campaign that led to Mayor Robert F. Wagner's 1965 executive order to include artwork in municipal buildings. Bauer was also honored as an outstanding civil servant by Mayor John V. Lindsay and made a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.
