Architect Eberhard Zeidler joined W. & W.R.L. Blackwell and Craig, a firm led by Blackwell Jr. and partner Craig, in 1951. The firm, originally founded by William Blackwell in 1880 in Peterborough, was renamed Blackwell, Craig and Zeidler Architects in 1954. The practice relocated to Toronto in 1961.[2] Senior partner emeritus, Eberhard Zeidler,[3][4] stepped down from Zeidler Partnership Architects in 2009.[5] Rebranded in 2017, Zeidler Architecture Inc. is now led by a national senior leadership of 11 partners, with over 160 team members across Canada.[6]
