Description:
Original directory name: "11_Publikation". File consists chiefly of presentations (Powerpoint, PDF and InDesign files), organized by date and topic such as the double cone, the interior design, the restaurants, the lighting, etc. Often, drawings or images used in the presentations are kept within the same directory. In some instances Adobe InDesign files might have dependencies on those drawings and images, so duplicates were not removed. Presentations seemed to have served various purposes such as showing design proposals or the construction’s progress. Some system files, true type font and photographs predate the BMW Welt project. File notably contains the film commissioned by COOP HIMMELB(L)AU to Imaginary Forces in order to show BMW the magnitude of the project of BMW Welt. A six meter long model was created for this purpose. The film was shown to the client on a 8 x 10 meter screen. Film is in directory "o_Präsentation\050407_INNENAUSBAU" and there are also preliminary and alternate versions in other directories in this file. Most common file formats: JPEG File Interchange Format, Acrobat PDF 1.4 - Portable Document Format, Adobe Illustrator, Encapsulated PostScript File Format, Acrobat PDF 1.5 - Portable Document Format

Sub-series
AP018.S1.1980.PR09.SS1
Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of an office building for Marathon Realty in Toronto at the corner of York and Front Streets from 1980-1983. The office identified the project number as 8009. The project consisted of two nineteen storey towers with stainless steel and glass exteriors connected by a glass atrium on each floor. Owned and commissioned by Marathon Realty, the majority of the building’s space was designed for rental. Due to this, the design was highly modular with no interior walls on most floors. Each floor was approximately 18,000 square feet. The ground floor consisted of a lobby, a bank and a restaurant. At the beginning of this project, the project was named Marathon Realty Office Building, Front and York Streets. Soon after, the office building became known as University Place, which it is often referred to as in these materials. Eventually, the building would become the headquarters of CitiBank and renamed Citigroup Place. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, textual records and other materials dating from 1980-1987. The majority of the drawings are located within the textual records and show the design of building details. Other drawings include site surveys, design development drawings, presentation drawings, and construction drawings. The photographs show construction progress, tests, models, and the finished project. The textual records contain the project proposal, contracts, client and contractor correspondence, inter-office memos, meeting minutes, financial records, change orders, supplementary instructions, specifications, detail planning, artist’s portfolios for the building’s art competition, site inspection reports, and schedules. File AP018.S1.1980.PR09.004 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office. The CCA also holds materials for a subproject under this project series, which document the installation of signs to the top of the building after the building's construction (AP018.S1.1980.PR09.SS1). Subproject materials are viewed separately from the project due to the different project numbers originally assigned by the office.
