The partnership's Beaux-Arts style is distinguishable and makes a similarly broad use of architectural terra cotta set around flat (and often red) brick. Born in New York in 1874, Moeller graduated from Columbia University's School of Arts[1] with a Bachelor of Philosophy, course in Architecture, in 1895. Although two years younger, Moeller graduated in the same class as his future partner with whom he joined around 1902. Moeller later was elected head of the Columbia Alumni Federation[2] in 1921 and re-elected in the following year. He was also a member of the Board of Governors of the Columbia University Club, the Real Estate Board of New York, the New York Athletic Club, the Norwalk Yacht Club, and the St. George's Snowshoe Club of Montreal. His parents were of German ancestry and both the 1900 and 1930 census revealed he was unmarried but living in Manhattan with his two younger and also unmarried sisters, Hildegard and Selma. His profession was listed already as architect in 1900. Although he moved to East 84th Street by the 1930 census, his 1917 draft registration card shows him living at 319 West 75th Street, very near to where his and his partner's projects were concentrated. Moeller's professional career began its notoriety with the formation of his partnership with his Columbia classmate, Harry B. Mulliken.[3] The partnership, known as Mulliken and Moeller, was very active in the first decade and then is mentioned far less in historical sources. Moeller however practiced his profession in New York City for over fifty years, with an office on Madison Avenue during the 1940s. He died in 1954 in his home at the age of 80 and is buried in Greenwood Cemetery, Brooklyn. Selected works
