Buchman studied architecture at Cornell University. He was a partner in two firms previous to 1900 when he and Mortimer J. Fox organized the firm of Buchman & Fox. During this partnership he was associated in the design of the World's Tower Building, Times Annex, and numerous New York landmarks. In 1917 Ely Jacques Kahn succeeded Mr. Fox as Mr. Buchman's partner, and a number of important buildings resulted from that affiliation which continued until Mr. Buchman retired because of ill health.
