Edward Blum (1867–1944) was an architect born in Paris, who, with his brother George, designed apartment and office buildings, most of which are in New York City.
Edward and George studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
[4][5] Christopher Gray of the New York Times wrote that the "buildings do everything differently...
Their copperwork, for store trim or entrance canopies, is richly worked, like the cover of a medieval manuscript.
"[5] Edward Blum died in Sunnyside, Queens, New York, aged 77.
