James P. Ryan, AIA
1935 - 2023
Jim Ryan founded JPRA Architects in 1978 and led the firm through the early evolution of social ‘hubs’ for shopping, dining and entertainment for over 30 years. Jim retired from JPRA in 2008 as Chairman Emeritus. Jim was committed to architect education and lectured at universities on retail development and its opportunities in architectural practice. He initiated and funded a new graduate work/study fellowship program at his alma mater, Lawrence Technological University which recognized his leadership and philanthropy with the first Distinguished LTU Alumni Award in architecture in 1997.
