William B. Ditmars

William B. Ditmars - not to be confused with Isaac Ditmars, partner of Schickel.

Ditmars was a prolific architect in German parts of the Eastern District. Circa 1873, Ditmars designed the new Eastern District Turn Verein on Meserole Street, with Theobald Engelhardt as his apprentice (and Theobald's father, Philip Engelhardt the contractor/builder).
