J. Max Bond Jr., Architect, Dies at 73
Passing of J. Max Bond Jr. FAIA
Greetings,
nycobaNOMA
THE NEW YORK COALITION OF BLACK ARCHITECTS NYCOBA
THE NEW YORK CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION OF MINORITY ARCHITECTS NOMA
It is with deep regret that I inform you of the passing of J. Max Bond Jr. FAIA NOMA.
Mr. Bond was one of the founders of NYCOBA-NOMA in 1970 and had been involved with the organization since that time. Mr. Bond was a mentor and friend to many in NYCOBA-NOMA.
His accomplished projects located in Harlem, New York, Atlanta Georgia, and as far reaching as Africa have earned Mr. Bond accolades in the design community and amongst his peers.
In the 15 years I have gotten to know Mr. Bond he has been an inspiration. His focus on design and design relating to the Black community was an inspiration to the many members past and present of NYCOBA-NOMA.
As we gather more details, we will post information to our General Membership.
Yours truly,
Andrew E. Thompson AIA NYCOBA-NOMA
President NYCOBA-NOMA 2009
