Project
AP075.S1.1979.PR04
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the British Columbia Institute of Technology (B.C.I.T.) site at the Discovery Parks Multi Tenant Facility, located on Willingdon Avenue, in Burnaby, British Columbia. Created in 1979, Discovery Parks is an organization with the mission to accomodate scientific and technological research activities by building and renting research installations. Initially founded by the provincial government, Discovery Parks became self-governning and independant in 1990. Oberlander worked on the Discovery Parks B.C.I.T's site from 1979-1984 with Russell Vandiver Architects. The concept of B.C.I.T's site was to create a park like environment for an industrial research site. The site was surrounded by a woodland and included a wetland. To reflect the existing condition of her landscape design, Oberlander added a rentention pool and a restored woodland, creating a urban forest using native plants. The project was completed in 1982. The project series contains textual documents, such as correspondence with client and architects, financial documents, minutes of meetings, specifications and Oberlander's concept notes. The project is also documented through working drawings, including grading plans, irrigation plans, landscape plans and sites plans. It also included reference drawings of the site, photographs of the completed landscape and a mounted photographs of the a section of the landscape design by Oberlander.
