Project
AP027.S1.D34
Description:
This project series documents a series of commissions to study the various requirements for the future of the Montréal International Airport given the increase in traffic and potential future technological innovations in aviation. Van Ginkel Associates looked at three options: expanding the airport located in Dorval; abandonning Dorval as a site completely; and keeping the Dorval location and adding another airport at a new site. In their study they included future operations, systems, and the impact on the region, including site selection studies, studies of industrial and commercial development related to the airport, and its anticipated activity. Proposals for land use and the reorganization of the territory surrounding the new site were also presented.

ARCH280044
Description:
This box mostly contains transparencies and negatives of maps from various archives which the van Ginkels used for their own work and transparencies of the van Ginkels own work. They used the transparencies to present their projects and proposals. The transparencies of their work are numbered and titled, ex. Old City 193. The van Ginkels would produce their own maps prior to starting a project. Also included are about 60 slides of facades of buildings in Old Montreal. These were photos the van Ginkels took and were likely taken in the late 1950s. They likely used these as reference material.
