AP140.S2.SS1.D63
Description:
File documents an executed project for the Performing Arts Centre, Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York. This project was originally planned in two phases, with the second phase to be constructed at a later date, when funding was made available. File also documents an urban design study of the Collegetown area of the City of Ithaca, encompassing the site of the Performing Arts Centre, as well as unexecuted projects for a hotel and student housing, on a site adjacent to the Performing Arts Centre. These projects were part of an urban redevelopment programme for the Collegetown area, centered on the Performing Arts Centre, and instigated by Cornell University, with the City of Ithaca and private developers. Material in this file was produced between 1971 and 1989. File contains reference and measured drawings, conceptual drawings, a large number of design development drawings, as well as several presentation drawings and working drawings for the Performing Arts Centre. File also contains reference and measured drawings, design development and presentation drawings for the Collegetown urban design study. A smaller number of design development drawings depict hotel and student housing projects. Photographic materials include views of study and presentation models by John Donat Photography, photographers Wolfgang Hoyt (Esto Photographics) and Peter Walser, views of the completed Performing Arts Centre by photographer Richard Bryant, as well as views of existing buildings by photographer John Reis for the Collegetown urban study. Textual records are also present in the file. Study and presentation models represent the Performing Arts Centre.

Collection
Rohault de Fleury collection
CI001
Synopsis:
The Rohault de Fleury collection documents the work of three generations of French architects, Hubert, his son Charles, and his grandson Georges, spanning from the early 18th to late 19th century. The collection is extremely varied encompassing both private and government commissions and including domestic work, institutional buildings, commercial buildings, urban planning, and student work from both the École des beaux-arts and the École polytechnique, and archaeological studies. Stylistically, the projects incorporate the two dominant contemporary directions in French architecture - functionalism as advocated by Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand and the classicism of the École des beaux-arts.

CP Aviary
AP144.S2.D113
Description:
File documents an unexecuted project for an aviary and laboratory for the Royal Veterinary College, Camden, London, England. The design had to be easily dismantled, transported, and re-erected, since it was possible that there would be a "Stage 2" where the aviary would be moved from its original urban site to a more open rural site. Conceptual sketches illustrate preliminary ideas for the general structure and for. Some sketches are colored with metallic ink to outline structural components. Schematic design drawings illustrate two alternate plans, probably for urban and rural sites. A schematic flow diagram shows the use of research equipment within specified laboratory zones/research modules. Design development drawings show the aviary structure for both the urban and rural site. Isometrics, axonometrics, and perspectives show spatial division and accommodation within the aviary. Duplicate reprographic copies are made from the original drawings; some are annotated with notes. Material in this file was produced between 1978 and 1989, but predominantly between 1981 and 1985. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, reference drawings, other drawings, a model, photographic materials, and textual records.
