Henry Johanson

Henry Johanson was a 20th-century American architect who worked extensively in designing buildings throughout the New York metropolitan area.

He is best known for his work throughout the New York metropolitan area – specifically in Queens and suburban Long Island, including places such as Flower Hill, Roslyn, Roslyn Estates, and Garden City in Nassau County – and in Jamaica Estates in Queens.

[6] He also designed the Lincoln Building in Roslyn, which is a contributing property in the Main Street Historic District – along with several Roslyn homes on Sinclair Martin Drive (which are part of a municipal historic district).

[1][10][11][12] In 1947, Johanson designed 330 homes for a new, large-scale housing development in Garden City, New York.

[13] A few years later, in 1954, he designed 100 additional homes in a large-scale development in Williston Park, New York, known as North Shore Estates – and in 1955 he designed 23 homes for the Fairway Estates development in Roslyn Harbor, New York, adjacent to the Engineers Country Club.
