the University of Dallas, Texas Woman's University and Texas Christian University. Geren's church projects included University Christian Church, Travis Avenue Baptist Church, Matthews Memorial Methodist Church, Ridglea United Methodist Church, and Ridglea Presbyterian Church, all in and around Fort Worth. Late in life, his firm was the local associate architect working with Louis Kahn on the Kimbell Art Museum. (This was a common practice in Fort Worth with out-of-town architects, and Kahn had a reputation for significant time and cost overruns. The Geren firm was known locally for bringing in projects on time and within budget.) Geren died in 1969 and his son completed the Kimbell Museum as associate architect.
