Fiske & Peters, Architects
Partners:
Ferdinand C. Fiske, Lincoln, Nebraska
George W. Peters, Lincoln, Nebraska
Fiske & Peters was a short-lived Lincoln architectural partnership formed not long after both men arrived in Lincoln, Peters from Dayton, Ohio in 1886 and Fiske from Minneapolis around 1887. Both were near 30 years of age, had several years of architectural background, and had married in recent years. Despite these similarities, it is not clear that their partnership was productive, while it definitely was short. None of Peters' few Lincoln projects are known to have involved Fiske, and Fiske immediately embarked upon a prolific Lincoln career, without any of his commissions apparently involving Peters. Therefore none of their projects, even of the 1888-1889 period, are listed here, but rather on their individual pages.
