The George Ashdown Audsley Collection consists of 10 architectural drawings documenting works by George Ashdown Audsley and his brother William J. Audsley, 1893-1898. Projects include competition designs for the New York City Hall, 1893, and for the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart, Newark, NJ, 1897, a detail elevation for an office building (possibly the Bowling Green Building), an elevation of an unidentified gothic style building, and two renderings illustrating schemes for a bank, dated 1898. Additional materials include 5 drawings made by Berthold Audsley, son of George Audsley, illustrating construction techniques for scale models in laminated cardboard, 1935.

Individual holding records for this collection are available on the Philadelphia Architects and Buildings website.
