Lloyd Willington Kent (1907-1991) was an American architect from Providence, Rhode Island. With work based in modernist theory, Kent and his firms designed many Rhode Island civic buildings during the mid-twentieth century. Lloyd W. Kent was born in Pawtucket, Rhode Island in 1907. He graduated from Dartmouth in 1929 and MIT in 1932, with additional training at Fontainebleau later that year. He worked for Hood & Fouilhoux in New York City and Edwin E. Cull in Providence, before opening his own office in Providence in 1937.[1][2] In 1938 it became Kent & Aldrich with the addition of David Aldrich. in 1939 another partner was added, William F. Cruise. The partnership would remain the same until 1946, when Philip D. Creer, director of architecture at RISD, became partner.[3] At the same time, engineer Arthur Mather, Jr. became partner, the firm then being Creer, Kent, Mather, Cruise & Aldrich. Mather left in 1953, when the partnership was reduced to Creer, Kent, Cruise & Aldrich. In 1956 Creer was selected as the head of the School of Architecture at the University of Texas at Austin. Despite this, Creer's business connections were maintained, and were not severed until 1959.[4] Once again known as Kent, Cruise & Aldrich, the firm was maintained as such until 1962, when Aldrich left to practice independently. The firm was then known as Kent, Cruise & Associates until 1968, when it became Kent, Cruise & Partners.[4] The firm survived at least until 1993. Architectural worksKent & Aldrich, 1938-1939:
