The press was founded in 1981 in Princeton, New Jersey, by Kevin Lippert, who was then studying architecture at Princeton University. In 1985, it moved to New York City, where it operated for years in the East Village neighborhood. In 2014, it moved again, to Hudson, N.Y., where it also runs a retail store, Paper + Goods.[4] It is not related to Princeton University Press.[5]

Since 1996, Princeton Architectural Press has been distributed in the Americas by Chronicle Books. It was part of the German publishing group Springer Science+Business Media from 1997[6] to 2009. In early 2010, Lippert reacquired Springer's shares. In 2011, Princeton Architectural Press was acquired by the McEvoy Group, and PAP became a sister company to Chronicle Books.[7]

Founder Kevin Lippert died on March 29, 2022 of complications from brain cancer. He was 63.[8]
