CI007.S1.1939.PR01
Description:
This project series documents Mies van der Rohe project for the Illinois Institute of Techology in Chicago, Illinois, United States. This series includes documents related to his project for the Illinois Institute of Technology Campus Master Plan (1936-1958), and his work on various pavilion of the campus: the Boiler Plant (1945-1946), the Field House Building, Gymnasium, Natatorium (1939-1945), the Metallurgy and Chemical Engineering Building (Perlstein Hall) (1944-1947), the Minerals and Metals Research Building (1942-1943), and the Robert F. Carr Memorial Chapel of Saint Savior (1949-1952). The material in this series was produced between 1939 and 1958, with a bulk of material from 1930 to 1946. The series contains drawings and sketches by Mies van der Rohe, predominantly related to the the Metallurgy and Chemical Engineering Building (Perlstein Hall), the Field House Building, Gymnasium, Natatorium, and the Minerals and Metals Research Building, and also photographs of some of the drawings and exterior views of the Boiler Plant photographed by Hedrich-Blessing. The series also includes a few textual records of notes and calculations for the Field House Building, Gymnasium, Natatorium.

Description:
- Twenty hectographs of the Monadnock Building were probably cut apart when the southern half, owned by Shepherd Brooks, became the Kearsarge Building in 1889 (DR1986:0767:120). The southern half of the building (DR1986:0767:466:001-042 and DR1986:0767:467:001-054) was cut out, leaving the northern half (DR1986:0767:048 - DR1986:0767:056, DR1986:0767:248 - DR1986:0767:257, and DR1986:0767:259). The hectographs were possibly divided so that two discrete sets of reprographic copies could be produced for the Monadnock and Kearsarge Buildings.
