Description:
File documents the executed project for the Wexner Center for the Visual Arts, Columbus, Ohio. Material in this file was produced between 1977 and 1989. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, working drawings, competition drawings, presentation drawings, record drawings, reference drawings, publication drawings, photographic material, reference drawings, CD-Rs, textual records, and a model. Textual records include conceptual drawings, some by Eisenman (DR1994:0149:001-1138). Design development drawings and final working drawings are organized chronologically: 1983 (DR1994:0149:1139-1140), 1984 (DR1994:00149:1141-1294), 1985 (DR1994:00149:1295-1542), 1986 (DR1994:0149:1543-1577), 1988 (DR1994:0149:1578-1582), and 1989 (DR1994:0149:1583-1642). Competition drawings include original drawings (DR1994:0149:1643-1662) and KC5 negatives (DR1994:0149:1670-1754) used to produce the final presentation panels (DR1994:0149:1755-1756). Lithographs DR1994:0149:1757-1774 were used as presentation drawings. Reference drawings include site plans provided by the client (DR1994:0149:1780-1821), aerial photographs (DR1994:0149:1822-1823), photographs of the existing buildings on the proposed site (DR1994:0149:1824-1827) and measured drawings of the armoury, and shop drawings by Jules Fisher & Paul Marantz, Inc. Architectural Lighting Design. Eisenman published a book on the Wexner Center in 1989, and the cover and galleys are included in this group (cover: DR1994:0149:1828; galleys: DR1994:0149:1829-1831).

Series
AP184.S3
Description:
Series 3, Advanced Trading Floor Operations Center, 1998-2004, combined two projects in the built environment, the Command Center and the Executive Ramp, both conceived as a technological expansion on the existing NYSE Trading Floor. This series includes textual and born-digital components, as well as a number of drawing sets. The real-time virtual reality environment returned to the physical environment with the design and construction of the Command Center and Executive Ramp. The Command Center project involved the construction of a raised platform from the Main Room to the Blue Room; features included an information desk, a systems desk, and a video wall, the last of which displayed various stock data. It was later renovated during the Executive Ramp project, which primarily involved the installation of a multi-screen display of the 3DTF into the Command Center. Together, the two projects make up the Advanced Trading Floor Operations Center, often referred to as “the ramp.” The textual records for this series include correspondence and a small number of photographs. Digital files for the Advanced Trading Floor primarily include handouts for presentation meetings; there is also a small body of photographs of NYSE and press material. Additionally, there are also approximately 65 plans, which document the design and construction of the Command Center. These include preliminary drawings, construction sets, and addendums. Notably, the oversized materials also contain a photograph of former U.S. President Bill Clinton standing on the ramp.
