Prolific architect/engineer Kurt W. Peuckert concentrated on the design of breweries and industrial buildings. His first projects are recorded in the Philadelphia Real Estate Record and Builders Guide in 1894, when his design for the Leibert & Obert brewery and cold storage plant in the Manayunk section of Philadelphia is listed. Through 1920, when his last citation appears, the PRERBG maintained a long list of industrial commissions for Peukert and his partnership Peukert & Wunder, established in 1910 with the formal addition of nephew Clarence Wunder to the office name. Breweries, machine shops, lofts, factories, warehouses, bottling houses, all poured from the Peuckert office, but little biographical information has been uncovered for Peuckert himself.
