Career

Eugene R. Liebert was born in Germany in 1866. He emigrated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1883, where he found work with a relative in the Trostel & Gallun tannery. The next year, Liebert took a position as a draftsman with Henry C. Koch. When Herman Schnetzky left Koch's office to start his own architectural firm, Liebert followed him as his foreman. In 1891, Liebert was admitted as a partner. Liebert left to form his own architectural office in 1897. Liebert was a popular choice among Milwaukee Germans and his work strongly reflects his home country' style.[1]

Personal

Two of his Liebert 's sons Walter F. and Carl, worked with him. Liebert was active as an architect until his death on April 27, 1945. The Albert O. Trostel House at 3200 North Lake Drive was considered his masterpiece, but it was destroyed following a 1935 fire.[1]

gollark: I'm not sure about infinitely, but IIRC there's no per-computer limit.
gollark: RAM use.
gollark: It seems like the problem is some somewhat broken optimization, where `pcall` somehow directly executes the real `getfenv`, ignorant of environments, if you have a function which only (or something like that?) calls a builtin. Or possibly not only builtins.
gollark: I have a fix, but it would be mildly bad for `pcall` performance so I don't want to implement it...
gollark: That sounds hilariously inefficient and probably wouldn't fix it.
