Alexander Cooper, FAIA, (Born 1936) often credited as Alex Cooper, is an American architect and urban designer. In his piece on Cooper in The New York Times, Paul Goldberger wrote that Cooper might be the most influential architect in New York right now. Surely, no architect is having as much impact, not only on the design of individual buildings, but on the shape of wide swaths of the city.Cooper has worked in Chicago, Boston, Denver, and Baltimore, as well as campus plans and buildings at Yale University, Georgetown University, and University of California, Santa Cruz. He has worked most extensively in New York City, where he has designed and planned many of the city’s major sites such as Battery Park City, the Times Square Theater District, redevelopment projects throughout the area, and Hudson Yards.
