Biography:

George J. Hardway was active in Cleveland from 1887 until 1905. He was a partner of Ora Williams from 1889 to 1891. The largest share of his work was on residences, although he would occasionally design industrial or commercial buildings. He had also designed houses in Seattle, Washington and Odebolt, Iowa. From the buildings that we know he designed, his homes were often simpler in design. He avoided the Queen Anne style that was prevalent at the time. In 1892 he and Charles Tousley were the editors and publishers of the American Builder. He left Cleveland in 1905 for New York City, where he had an office at 347 Fifth Avenue and lived in Great Neck on Long Island. He died at Great Neck in 1929 at the age of seventy-one.
