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.
