Johnson Mason Maury (May 1, 1847 – January 2, 1919) was an American architect and inventor who designed and built over 700 residential and commercial structures, mostly in Louisville, Kentucky where he pioneered Richardsonian Romanesque and Prairie School architecture in Kentucky.[2] Maury is mostly known for his works on The Kenyon Building, The Louisville Bourbon Inn in Old Louisville and The Kaufman-Strauss building.[3] Maury attended Male High School. After graduation, Maury moved to Boston where he studied architecture for two years under architect H.H. Richardson who had designed the Grace Episcopal Church during the time of Maury's stay. Maury returned to Louisville and worked under Episcopal Church Architect William H. Redin for six years. Maury was also a founding member of The Kentucky Association of Architects,[4] in which he served as Second Vice President, as well as President of the Louisville Chapter of the American Institute of Architecture.
