Project
AP056.S1.1995.PR05
Description:
This project series documents the Pavilions Condominiums, later referred to as the H2O Condominiums, in Toronto from 1995-1999. The office identified the project number as 9505. This project consisted of the design of four large condo buildings located on the shoreline of Lake Ontario at 500 Queens Quay West. The first two buildings, with an exterior of concrete, red brick and glass, were completed and occupied in the spring of 1999. The two eleven-storey towers were connected in a U-shape by a smaller building, creating a courtyard at their centre. Two more towers were scheduled for completion in 2001, but they were never built. The project is recorded through drawings dating from 1995-1997. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, presentation drawings, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives and details. There are also some reprographic copies of watercolour paintings in the materials.

AP018.S1.1976.PR04
Description:
This project series documents a non-profit, cooperative housing development in Toronto from 1976-1977. The office identified the project number as 7606 This project investigated four schemes located on Queen's Quay at the shore of Lake Ontario for the Labour Council Development Foundation. The building was referred to as MT 27, because it was to replace the existing marine terminal 27 building. The schemes included a series of V-shaped buildings arranged in S formations, a more classic series of rectangular buildings mixed on the property with hexagonal shaped buildings, and one with just hexagonal buildings. These schemes, arranged on the 3.7 acre site, ranged in size from three to nine storeys and included apartments of varying sizes. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1977. The drawings include site plan schemes, typical unit plans and sections, while the textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports and the project proposal.
