  "Following in his fathers footsteps William Lee Woollett studied architecture at MIT and after working for the Boston firm Fehmer and Page, he returned to Albany in 1896 to set up his own practice. In 1905, he was joined briefly by John W. Woollett, one of his brothers, who was also an architect. After the fire and earthquake in San Francisco, William Lee went out to investigate the prospects of starting an office there in 1909. He stayed in California and later gained considerable recognition for his State Armories in San Francisco and Los Angeles, numerous schools, office buildings, theaters and houses as well as the Hollywood Bowl." William Lee Woollett's son, William Woollett, and grandson Joseph L. continue to practice in California.
