The article, quoting from the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia article, suggests that "Most of the monumental buildings erected in the Hungarian capital between 1870 and 1890 were designed by [Wechselmann]". The only problem is I can't seem to find any, aside from the Károlyi-palota (Múzeum Street 17‎) that he designed. He was a successful contractor/builder so he may have been involved in many important buildings in that way. And he also donated money for the construction of many important, including the Dohany Street Synagogue and the School for the Blind on Mexicoi utca, but it doesn't seem that he designed any of these.
