About Thomas Henry Tracy
Thomas Henry Tracy (June 25, 1848 – October 31, 1925) was a Canadian architect and alderman. Born in London, Upper Canada, to Irish immigrants, Tracy was apprenticed to William Robinson for five years beginning in 1864; after spending time working for Kivas Tully and Thomas Fuller, Tracy returned to Robinson in 1873, and he took control of the firm after the latter's 1878 retirement. Tracy left private practice in 1882, with George F. Durand assuming control of the firm and Tracy serving as full-time city engineer. Tracy moved to Vancouver, British Columbia, in 1891, to assume the position of city engineer. In that capacity, he helped design the city's waterworks; he also served five years as an alderman.
