Description:
This project series documents planning for the Westnor Development Project, later called Wittington Place, in North York, Ontario from 1991-1997. The office identified the project number as 9106. This project consisted of a competition entry to develop the area above Highway 401 next to Yonge Street. The large plot of land would be a mix of residential, retail, hotel, office and outdoor spaces. The competition also called for the creation of a sports arena, Canada Coliseum, to be used for professional basketball and hockey. This entry was proposed by New York based firm Ehrenkrantz Eckstut and Whitelaw Architects, working with KPMB, among others.[1] The development was to be carried out in multiple phases, divided by city blocks. The drawings present different schemes for this development, most of which include a large park at its centre. This project was never built. The project is recorded through drawings and a site plan painting dating from 1991-1997. The large part of these drawings are originals and include sketches, model drawings, site plans and surveys, elevations, sections, perspectives and axonometric drawings. These drawings focus primarily on the development of the area as a whole and less on individual buildings.

Reference number:
CD034.S1.1974.PR02
Description:
This project series contains eight reproductions of drawings displayed in the exhibit to document the Leal neighbourhood, in Porto, Portugal. The exhibit text explained that the project: ... pioneered the concept of community association, with the first resident activities dating back to the early 1970s. In 1974, immediately after the revolution, the residents opposed the building of a car park that would have involved their relocation and resettlement. The project of the architect Sérgio Fernandez, which originated in a pre-revolutionary resident organization, was conceived through the dynamics of the resident process, and had a project-oriented clarity that came from an economic sense of design, adapting to the needs and political character of the intervention. (The SAAL Process, Housing in Portugal 1974–76) Sérgio Fernandez worked for SAAL/North with António Corte Real, Carlos Delfim, Emídio Fonseca, José Manuel Soares, Vítor Sinde and the residents' association Bairro do Leal, that was founded on April 30th, 1975. The first phase of the project included 16 dwellings and the second, 33 dwellings. The operation began in October 1974, with a construction date in April 1976. This project series contains reproductions of design development drawings, cadastral and implementation plans, and an axonometric view. The original drawings were produced in 1975 and were reproduced in 2015 for the exhibit.

Description:
This project documents Rose’s involvement with the design phase of the Old Port of Montreal Master Plan, Montréal, Québec and consists mainly of sketches, studies and presentation drawings for the redevelopment project with very few as built or architectural plans. The project materials reflect a Romantic design aesthetic and landscape development through numerous architectural design drawings for public amenities such as park benches, pedestrian walkways, various lighting sources, pavilions and fountains. This project also includes some of Rose’s submissions to the Faubourg Quebec development project which ran concurrent with the Old Port project. For the redevelopment of the Old Port of Montréal, Master Plan, Rose worked with the following firms: Cardinal Hardy e Associes, Chan Krieger & Associates, and Jodoin Lamarre Pratt. Rose was awarded a Progressive Architecture Urban Design Award (1992) and a Prix d’excellence for Urban Design from the Ordre des architectes du Québec (1993) for the realization of this urban project. The textual records in this project include budgets, correspondence, consultation documents, and intra office communiques as well as extensive research material on the history of the Old Port of Montreal including reproductions of historical photographs. The photographs in this project largely reflect the condition of the Old Port and Rue de la Commune prior to redevelopment and were used for reference and in presentation materials.

Description:
This project series documents alterations and extensions made to the Toronto Sun building in downtown Toronto in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7633. This project consisted primarily of an extension to the building's press hall and alterations. An addition of approximately 20,000 square feet was proposed to house printing operations on property once occupied by parking. The new space would permit the addition of a new printing press, adding 4 units of press to the existing10 unit press line. Due to the erasure of parking, this project is also heavily concerned with the search for new parking for the building. Parkin Architects Planners had designed and constructed the original Toronto Sun building at 333 King Street East from 1973-1975. The project is recorded through drawings, textual records, photographs and slides dating from 1974-1981. The majority of drawings are of details and are arranged within the textual records. The photographic materials show the building's exterior and masonry. The textual records include correspondence, specifications, meeting and site reports, tender documents, consultancy records, bylaw and building authority records, financial documents, change orders, supplementary instructions, interoffice letters, and contracts. File AP018.S1.1976.PR25.001 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

This project series documents the site consultancy and construction of the College of Nurses of Ontario in Toronto from 1980-1982. The office identified the project number as 8003. This project consisted of a building with a three-storey office space and atrium on the east side and a single-storey council chamber on the west side. The project was adapted to fit its surroundings, which had a residential landscape to the west and commercial zoning to the east. The building was 2536 square meters in size and cost approximately $5.2 million. In 1982, the design won a Canadian Architect Award of Excellence. However, some judges later stated that design changes made during construction had destroyed the original concept and the finished building lacked the polish of the original proposal. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs and textual records dating from 1980-1985. A large part of these drawings are reprographic copies arranged within the textual materials. There is also one presentation board of sections and elevations. Photographs show the project site and construction progress of the building. The textual records include construction invoices, correspondence, change orders, calculations, site reports, minutes of meetings, design notes and the program for the opening of the building.

This project series documents the construction of the Etobicoke General Hospital in Etobicoke, Ontario from 1966-1971. The office identified the project number as 6601. The project consisted of the design and construction of a twelve storey hospital building. The area of the building was 409,000 square feet and included 500 beds, diagnostic and treatment facilities, laboratories, administrative spaces, a cafeteria, and a staff lounge. This project was considered to be the first phase of construction at the time, with a medical office building and educational facilities to be added later on. The building was also designed to accommodate future vertical and horizontal expansion. John C. Parkin was originally hired for this project while he was working at the firm John B. Parkin Associates. This firm eventually evolved under new ownership, and was referred to as Searle Wilbee Rowland and later, as NORR. John C. Parkin left this firm during the project and continued work for the Etobicoke General Hospital under his new firm Parkin Architects Planners. All three firm names are present within materials for this project. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings, including a presentation board, dating from 1968-1976. These drawings include as-built drawings, site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, and construction schedules.
