Description:
This project series documents a competition entry for the St. Michael's College Lands Competition at the University of Toronto in 1987. The office identified the project number as 8724. The lands were located at the corner of Bay and St. Joseph Streets. Sketches for the proposal show axonometric schemes of rectangular building configurations, ranging from 16 storeys to 25 storeys. The project appears to be for a residence, as the drawings investigate different numbers of units in the building, with commercial spaces at grade. The project is recorded through sketches and a project model dating from around 1987.

Description:
Cette série contient des documents de deux natures. D'abord, les 26 photographies que Blaise Marchand a colligées alors qu'il était architecte en chef pour l'entretien au ministère des Travaux publics du Québec (1945-1968), illustrent principalement les différentes décorations temporaires installées sur les façades de l'Hôtel du Parlement à Québec, et dans les environs, à l'occasion d'événements spéciaux entre 1949 et 1960 [1963]. Pour la grande majorité, les photographies ont été réalisées par le Service de ciné-photographie de l'Office provincial de publicité du Québec, mais aussi par le ministère des Travaux publics - Service des architectes, ainsi que par le photographe Michel, photographie artistique et commerciale (Québec) et par le studio Photo Montcalm (Québec). Ensuite, les trois publications et le manuscrit ([1956]-1963) conservés dans la série documentent l'intérêt que Marchand portait à l'urbanisme et à la conservation et la restauration du patrimoine bâti. Les titres entre guillemets ont été tirés des légendes qui accompagnaient les photographies lorsque les documents sont arrivés aux archives.
