Harde & Short was a New York City-based Beaux-Arts architectural firm in the first decade of 20th century. The firm was a partnership between Richard Thomas Short (born circa 1870) and Herbert Spencer Harde (born circa 1873 as Herbert Spencer Steinhardt). Harde & Short was recorded as having formed by 1901 and worked on various small commissions for two years. The firm designed several buildings in Manhattan, including the Red House. Harde & Short is known for their intricacy of design as shown in the facades of Alwyn Court,[1] 44 West 77th Street, 45 East 66th Street,[2] and the Red House.[3] They also designed the two oldest buildings in the York Avenue Estate.[4] The firm split up shortly after the Alwyn Court's completion in 1909.[3]
