Guy Lowell

Guy Lowell (August 6, 1870 – February 4, 1927), American architect, was the son of Mary Walcott (Goodrich) and Edward Jackson Lowell, and a member of Boston's well-known Lowell family.

As Percival Lowell's third cousin, Guy became the sole trustee of the Lowell Observatory after his cousin's death in 1916. His combined practice of architecture and landscape design was perhaps sparked by his father-in-law, Charles Sprague Sargent, the first director of the Arnold Arboretum.

    The way I see it, God gave me the body, so I intend to use it. It’s a big ego trip.... You know, you look around a bar, you pick out a guy and you say, that’s the one: I’m going to take all of his money tonight.
