Project
AP018.S1.1974.PR16
Description:
This project series documents renovations to the Ontario Association of Architects headquarters in Toronto from 1974-1978. The office identified the project number as 7420. This project consisted of renovations to the heating, air conditioning and lighting systems of the office building. The project also investigated an expansion of the building within its current perimeter, stating a horizontal expansion would be too expensive due to the poor condition of the surrounding ground. A third floor addition to the three-level building was recommended. The headquarters had been designed by John C. Parkin's previous firm, John B. Parkin Associates, in the 1950s and was located at 50 Park Road. The project is recorded through textual records and reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1973-1978. The drawings are all arranged within the textual materials, which consist of containing correspondence, interoffice memos, supplementary instructions, change orders, certificates of payment, inspection and conference reports, contract documents and a feasibility study. Box AP018.S1.1974.PR16.001 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

Description:
This project series documents the Nova Sede do Banco Nacional de Cabo Verde in Cabo Verde. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 100/90. The office assigned the date 1998 to this project. The bank headquarter is divided into three volumes. Due to the high humidity level of the area, special efforts were put into the design of the air conditioning system. There are four different entrances, one for the public to access the main meeting rooms, one for the employees that is linked to the basement parking, one for the treasury, and one for visitors to the museum, auditorium, or the bar. To this day, the headquarter is still in construction. Documenting this project are plans, details, technical drawings, and mechanical drawings. Textual material includes correspondence, project documentation, technical and mechanical specifications. Photographic material documents the project site.
