Theatre Architects

Krokyn and Browne was the partnership of Jacob Frederick Krokyn and Ambrose Amarie Browne, formed in about 1921. From about 1925 through 1929, Arthur Rosenstein also was a partner, and the firm was known as Krokyn, Browne & Rosenstein. By 1930, Arthur Rosenstein no longer was a named partner in the firm, but he continued as a member of firm.

Krokyn and Browne continued until about 1957. Thereafter, J. Frederick Krokyn went into partnership with his son, William, forming the firm of Krokyn and Krokyn, and Ambrose Browne went into practice with his son, W. Chester Browne.

Krokyn and Browne was known primarily for its public and commercial buildings, including several movie theatres throughout New England.
