Description:
La construction de l’Université de Montréal s’est effectuée sur plusieurs années. Cormier est architecte en chef entre 1924 et 1947 et agit à titre d’architecte-conseil et d’ingénieur-conseil entre 1950 et 1961. Il semblait inévitable de diviser le cadre de classement en deux phases pour bien distinguer le rôle et l’implication de Cormier qui diffère durant ces deux périodes. La présence de deux plans d’ensembles très différents proposés en 1931 et 1961 appuie cette décision. Cette première phase s’étend sur une aussi longue période puisque le processus de construction a été parsemé de problèmes logistiques et financiers. Dès le début des travaux, le sol cause des problèmes lors de l’excavation et engendre des coûts supplémentaires en plus de retarder le processus. Avec la crise financière qui frappe en 1929, les travaux sont progressivement stoppés. De plus, les conditions météorologiques vont endommager une partie de la toiture et de la maçonnerie qui avait déjà été entamée, ce qui vient encore une fois engendrer des coûts additionnels. Suite au contexte économique particulier, l’administration de l’UdeM demande l’aide financière du gouvernement provincial pour protéger ce qui avait déjà été construit du pavillon principal. Le bâtiment sera finalement repris en 1943 et inauguré en 1947. Suite aux nombreux problèmes qui parsèmeront la première phase, le plan initial proposé par Cormier qui comprenait un stade, un aréna et la maison des animaux, sera abandonné au détriment du pavillon principal. Les projets non-réalisés sont tout de même documenté dans leurs sous-séries respectives. Il est important de prendre note que les plans produits par Cormier concernant les ailes du pavillon principal qui allaient servir de Centre Hospitalier ne seront jamais réalisés. Différents départements vont plutôt occuper l’espace.

AP197.S1.SS1
Description:
Located on 31 Rue St Guillaume in Paris, France, Maison de Verre was designed between 1928 and 1931 by furniture designer and architect Pierre Chareau, architect Bernard Bijvoet, and metal craftsman Louis Dalbet. Although the home was built, no original drawings exist for this project. In 1965, as Hodder Fellow at Princeton University, Kenneth Frampton along with Robert Vickery and Michael Carapetian measured the home and its details. Originally, their intention was that this research lead to a book project, but they later published their work as an article entitled "Maison de Verre" in a 1969 issue of Perspecta. This subseries includes measurement sketches and sixteen axonometric representations on vellum that were produced from this research. Photographs document Maison de Verre and provide various interior and exterior views of the house. Photographs by Michael Carapetian, published in the Perspecta article, “Maison de Verre (1969),” are also included in this subseries. Textual documentation includes drafts of the publication on Maison de Verre, as well as notes, correspondence, and various research files on Paul Nelson, Pierre Chareau, and Maison de Verre.

Description:
The five diverse pamphlets and publications primarily document certain architecturally-related events during Vancouver's explosive growth through the 1950s. Included are a fund-raising campaign brochure for the expansion of the Vancouver Art Gallery, 1949-1951, and an invitation to the inauguration of the Frederick Lasserre Architecture and Fine Arts Building at the University of British Columbia (UBC). The building was constructed by architects Thompson, Berwick, Pratt in 1957-1958, but officially opened in 1962 after the death of Lasserre (1911-1961), UBC's first director of the school of architecture. The series also includes "Project '58", a relatively rare privately-printed pamphlet given to Rhodri Windsor-Liscombe by architect Geoffrey Massey.

Description:
This project series documents the demolition of two buildings for the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto from 1973-1974. The office identified the project number as 7304. This project consisted of the demolition of 246 and 248 Simcoe Street, two buildings next to the Art Gallery of Ontario. The buildings were demolished to make space for a new parking lot. Beginning in 1969, Parkin’s firm was hired as the head architects for the AGO’s massive expansion program that would span more than a decade. This is one project relating to the expansion of the art gallery. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through textual records consisting of specifications, financial records, correspondence, inspection reports, and office drawing transmittal forms dating from 1973-1974. Two drawings within the textual records also show the site plan for the demolition.
