Youngest son of architect [[John L. Latenser (1858-1936), Architect|John L. Latenser]], little is currently known of '''George Latenser'''’s short life. He appears for a brief period in directory listings associated with [[John Latenser & Sons, Architects|John Latenser & Sons]], once as a superintendent with the firm. One building is attributed to him as an architect in Omaha City Building Permits. He was not an architect, however, and was primarily a builder of up-scale residential buildings.[[#References|[2]]]
