Description:
This project series documents a feasibility study for the new National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario from 1980-1982. The office identified the project number as 8011. In 1977, Parkin Architects Planners won a limited architectural competition for their design of the new National Gallery of Canada. The selected site for the competition, next to the Ottawa River, was controversial due to its uneven ground and lack of access to main streets in Ottawa. This project consisted of a feasibility study to use the existing Memorial Buildings in Ottawa as the site of the new National Gallery of Canada. These buildings, originally built in 1954 as federal offices, were between 4-6 storeys with 70,000 square feet of space, excluding parking levels. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs and textual records dating from 1980-1982. The majority of the drawings are reprographic copies of building sections, floor plans and area calculations. The textual records include correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, financial records and the feasibility report and design scheme documentation.

Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of a library and an addition to city hall in Fredericton, New Brunswick from 1972-1975. The office identified the project number as 7226. This project consisted of two distinct parts; a public library constructed at the corners of Campbell and Carleton Streets, and an addition to city hall whose original building was constructed at the corners of Queen and York Streets around 1875. These two buildings were located two blocks from one another, but a master plan for the project shows that the separating streets would be removed in favour of a pedestrian friendly landscape. Both buildings were located next to the St. John River. For this project, Parkin Architects Planners partnered with architectural firm Graham Napier Associates to form the joint venture referred to as Graham Parkin Architects Engineers Planners. The brick-clad addition to city hall nearly doubled the square footage of the ground and first floors. The original city hall was four levels and the addition was two, with a mechanical penthouse on top. The new areas included departmental offices such as planning, engineering and sewage, a drafting room, conference room, and reception, among others. The library consisted of a two-storey, brick-clad building that was approximately 24,000 square feet in size with a 16 car parking lot. The ground floor included reception and exhibit areas, stacks, administration offices, bookmobiles, and staff lockers, while the second level had stacks and reading areas, audiovisual areas and a staff work room and break room. The library also had a mechanical penthouse on top. The project is recorded through drawings, including mounted presentation boards, photographic materials and textual records dating from 1972-1978. The drawings consist of original sketches, plans, sections, elevations and details of both city hall and the library, and some drawings used for construction. There are also drawings of the original city hall, first drafted around 1875. The photographs show existing buildings and the construction progress of the project. The textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, specifications, consultancy documentation, a soil investigation, research and drawing transmittal records. File AP018.S1.1972.PR18.020 contains an index to the textual materials, which was created by the office.

There are also drawings of the original city hall, first drafted around 1875. The photographs show existing buildings and the construction progress of the project. The textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, specifications, consultancy documentation, a soil investigation, research and drawing transmittal records. File AP018.S1.1972.PR18.020 contains an index to the textual materials, which was created by the office.

Description:
File documents an unexecuted project for a multiple use building in Birmingham, England, for Shantasea Limited. Cedric Price resigned as the architect for the project and took on the role of architect for Birmingham and Midland Institute (BMI), one of the proposed tenants for the Shantasea project. The multi-functional centre was to include a theatre, TV studios, an audio-visual exhibition area, retail stores, offices, a meeting hall, a gallery, a seminar area, a library, and parking within an approx. 3,500,000 square-foot area. Drawings include sections showing preliminary circulation patterns, and design development drawings for seven alternate schemes, each with different total square footage. Volumetric studies compare functions and areas for each design. Diagrammatic plans and sections explore vertical and horizontal circulation patterns, alternate layouts for parking, and the relationship between areas of the building for BMI and those shared by BMI and other tenants. Material in this file was produced between 1967 and 1970. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, and textual records.

Description:
This project series documents a competition entry for the University of Waterloo Centre for Environmental Sciences and Engineering in Waterloo, Ontario in 1995. The office identified the project number as 9502. This project consisted of a proposal to create a new, environmentally sustainable campus building within the scope of the University's master plan. The integrated complex would consist of the five-storey Research Laboratories building and the four-storey Earth Sciences office building, interconnected by the three-storey Interior Street. Corridors in the Research Laboratories building would separate visitors from the rigorously controlled environments of the labs and act as a hub of student activity. Glazed walls would allow visibility into the labs from the corridor. The office building, with a café and museum at its ground level, would have loft-like offices with operable windows for more eco-friendly temperature control. Other ecological features were proposed including a breathing, green wall, the use of local, sustainable materials and a bio-reactor plant, among others. This proposal was never built. The project is recorded through drawings, presentation paintings, a model and some accompanying textual records dating from on or around 1995. The drawings are predominantly original sketches and presentation drawings.
