Scope and Content

This project series documents an addition to the IBM headquarters building in North York, Ontario from 1970-1971. The office identified the project number as 70002.

This project consisted of an expansion to the north-west corner of the U-shaped building, which was located on top of a ravine at 1150 Eglington Avenue East, on the same property as the IBM plant. The planning for this addition had already commenced when the original building's construction began by Parkin Architects Planners in 1965 (see project series AP018.S1.1965.PR03 described in this fonds).

The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1970, which consist of construction sets of architectural, structural, electrical and mechanical drawings.
