Summary
The Fred F. French Companies was established in New York City by Fred Fillmore French (1883-1936) in 1908. French was a real estate developer whose innovative investment strageties financed the construction of the Tudor City and Knickerbocker Village housing developments, and the Midtown skyscraper that bears his name. After French's death in 1936, Aaron Rabinowitz became the Chief Executive Officer. The Fred F. French Companies records consist of financial, legal and promotional materials in a range of formats including, project development binders and scrapbooks, correspondence, legal agreements, stock ledgers and certificates, prospectuses, brochures, photographs, and architectural blueprints and renderings that document French's distinctive approach to developing real estate in New York City during the early to mid 20th-century.
