Leslie Feder Obituary
Yorktown Heights - Leslie Feder, AIA, of Yorktown Heights, died on November 17. He was 83.
Mr. Feder was a founding partner of Castro-Blanco Piscioneri & Feder and Leslie Feder Architect, both architectural firms in New York City. Buildings he designed can be found throughout the metropolitan area, and include the sanctuary of Bet Am Shalom Synagogue in White Plains.
Mr. Feder attended the University of Wisconsin, where he was a member of Phi Epsilon Pi fraternity. He earned his B.Arch. from Columbia University in 1957 at the age of 21.
Mr. Feder met his wife, Beverly, aboard the USS Constitution, bound for Cannes and Naples, in 1960. They married a year later.
Mr. Feder had a lively and penetrating intellect and was perennially curious. He was interested in practically everything. He was particularly interested in learning how things work, whether they be mechanical devices or whole societies. He loved building things, including his own home. He was exceptionally well travelled.
Mr. Feder is survived by his wife Beverly; children Jesse and Elise; daughter-in-law Carol Perline and son-in-law Michael Pattie; grandchildren Daniel, Andrew, Josh, Eliza and Chester; sister-in-law Marjorie Feder; and numerous nieces and grand-nieces, nephews and grand-nephews.

Les and I knew each other for all but the first six years of our lives. We shared schooling in the Bronx, and I followed him to Wisconsin. His decency and integrity were guiding lights for me. As adults, we saw less of each other, certainly after I moved away from New York, first in 1970, again in 1985. But each meeting thereafter was memorable, e.g., in D.C. and later in Orlando, FL. Bev was by his side on each occasion. They were a wonderful team. May the living treasure what he stood for in his 83 years on earth.
