Hornblower & Marshall was a Washington, D.C.-based architectural firm that was a partnership between Joseph Coerten Hornblower (1848-1908) and James Rush Marshall (1851-1927).[1][2] The firm designed numerous substantial government and other buildings, a number of which have been listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
