Description:
Project series comprises preparatory studies and competition drawings for a redevelopment project in the historical centre of Pontassieve, outside Florence, Italy, and particularly the area around its piazza Vittorio Emanuele. Material in this project series is dated 1996. Alessandro Poli was the project group leader, and collaborated with architect Giannantonio Vannetti, landscape architects Mariella Sgaravatti and Elena Morici, artist Hidetoshi Nagasawa, artistic heritage expert Guiliano Gori, and art historian and critic Lara Vinca Masini. It is unclear whether the project was successful. The studies and project drawings emphasize the teardrop shape of the piazza.

Description:
This project series documents the Life Sciences Complex at Memorial University (MUN) in St. John’s, Newfoundland in 1972. The office identified the project number as 7211. In 1971, Parkin Architects Planners began work on the Health Sciences Complex located on MUN's north campus. This was a large teaching hospital that also contained the university's medical school. During the conception of the Health Sciences Complex, the Life Sciences Complex was proposed as a future expansion to the hospital. It would include MUN's life sciences department and additional hospital spaces related to those practices, such as pyscology. It is not clear from the materials in this project series whether Parkin Architects Planners proceeded with construction of the Life Sciences Complex. The project is recorded through a meeting report dating from 1972.

Description:
This project series documents a bus shelter in Fredericton, New Brunswick in 1975. The office identified the project number as 7505. This project consisted of the design of a bus shelter in front of the Fredericton Public Library, located at the corners of Campbell and Carleton Streets. For this project, Parkin Architects Planners partnered with architectural firm Graham Napier Associates to form the joint venture referred to as Graham Parkin Architects Engineers Planners. The library was also designed by Graham Parkin a few years earlier. The firms eventually lost this contract, based on the city's opinion that the firms hadn't acted quickly enough, the design was too permanent and the location was no longer available. The project is recorded through correspondence dating from 1975.
