Mackey III, founder of Mackey Mitchell Architects, died Sunday, November 27, after a long battle with cancer. He was 77. Gene was one of our most accomplished and dedicated alumni, serving as an ambassador for architecture and an advisor for the School and the University. His contributions are profound and lasting, they will resonate as part of the great legacy of the school. &＃8212;Carmon Colangelo, the Ralph J. Nagel Dean of the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts Gene Mackey The son of a prominent St. Louis architect, Mackey earned two degrees from Washington University: a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Sciences, in 1960, and a Bachelor of Architecture, in 1962. The following year, he earned a master&＃8217;s degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Design and in 1966 won Washington University&＃8217;s James Harrison Steedman Memorial Fellowship in Architecture for study abroad in Europe. Back in St. Louis, Mackey worked with Murphy & Mackey, a firm founded by his father, Eugene Mackey Jr., and Joseph D. Murphy. (Its projects included Washington University&＃8217;s Olin Library). But following his father&＃8217;s untimely death, in 1968, the younger Mackey opened his own one-man office on the 19th floor of the Railway Exchange Building downtown. &＃8220;I&＃8217;m not sure how I found that space,&＃8221; he later quipped, &＃8220;but I knew that I wanted to be inspired by a view of the river, and we had a great one.&＃8221; Early projects included the Ellisville City Hall and the restoration of the Pershing/DeBaliviere neighborhood as well as major renovations of the Lammert Building, Hotel Majestic, Park Plaza, the Post Office Annex, and the Union Station Office Complex. Other significant projects included the Gateway Mall Urban Design Study, the St. Louis College of Pharmacy, the Central Institute for the Deaf, Christian Brothers College High School, Saint Louis University&＃8217;s Chaifetz Arena, renovation of the Missouri Botanical Garden&＃8217;s Spink Pavilion, and the LEED Platinum Alberici Corporate Headquarters building. As the firm grew, Mackey earned a national reputation as a leader in contextual architecture, creating works that reflect a strong sense of place while demonstrating genuine concern for the traditions and character of their surroundings. Architecture critic Robert Duffy, writing for the&＃160;St. Louis Post-Dispatch, noted that, &＃8220;What distinguishes his work is elegance, confidence, gravity, an understanding of the eloquence of understatement, and an appreciation of beauty and utility, along with generosity, humanity, and grace.&＃8221; At Washington University, Mackey Mitchell designed and completed dozens of significant projects, beginning with a transformative residential life master plan. Other major works include South 40 House, College Hall, and Eliot House; renovations to Mallinckrodt Center; Knight, Bauer, and Hillman halls, in partnership with MRY Architects; and the firm&＃8217;s current work on Jubel Hall in collaboration with MRY Architects. &＃8220;Gene has been a dear friend, trusted colleague, inspiring mentor, and amazing advocate for the architectural profession,&＃8221; said Jamie Kolker, University architect and associate vice chancellor for facilities. &＃8220;He has deepened my understanding of the built environment, always reminding us all to think first about the experience and not the physical. His impact on our community, its individuals, and the profession is deep and will endure forever.&＃8221; Mackey twice served as president of AIA St. Louis, the local chapter of the American Institute of Architects, and in 1991 became a member of the AIA College of Fellows. In 2002, Mackey received a Washington University Distinguished Alumni Award and, in 2007, he joined the National Council of the Sam Fox School. The following year, he received AIA St. Louis&＃8217; Gold Honor Award. &＃8220;Gene believed that architects have an ethical responsibility to contribute to building a better society, and he showed that in his own work,&＃8221; said Bruce Lindsey, dean of architecture and E. Desmond Lee Professor for Community Collaboration. &＃8220;Through his generosity of spirit he mentored a generation of St. Louis architects who are carrying that spirit forward. We will miss him.&＃8221; Mackey is survived by his wife, Ann; daughters Elizabeth Perrin of St. Louis and Augustine Shodeen of Dallas; sons Philip Mackey and Eugene Mackey IV of St. Louis; stepchildren Clint Whittemore, Barbie Mattie, and Katie McAllister; and a sister, Ellen Mackey of St. Louis.
