Parr and Fee

After attending preparatory school in Gravesend, England, he articled in his father's firm, Parr & Strong.

[1] Parr left England in approximately 1888, living in Los Angeles, Seattle, Winnipeg, and Victoria, before settling in Vancouver in 1896.

He opened a solo practice in Vancouver in 1896, and in 1897 formed a partnership with Samuel Maclure (1860-1929).

Fee learned the profession while working for Harry Wild Jones, an architect in Minneapolis.

He gained notoriety for opposing Canada's involvement in World War I and for promoting the idea that British Columbia should join the United States.
