Swimming Bar/Billiard
AP066.S2.D27
Description:
Le dossier documente le projet d'aménagement intérieur (1991) et construction d'une marquise (1997) pour le Swimming Bar/Billard, situé au 3643 boulevard Saint-Laurent, à Montréal, Québec. Le budget aloué pour ce projet était de 120 000$ et la superficie est de 600 m2. Le dossier contient des photographies, des dessins, des reprographies, des documents textuels et une maquette. Description du projet par l'architecte: "Selon Jacques Rousseau […], l'idée était d'établir une enceinte, une peau sur le périmètre de l'espace. L'intervention est minimale mais d'un puissant effet. En effet, sur tout le périmètre, fenètres comprises, courent des éléments d'aluminium anodisé, l'ossature d'une paroie faite de panneaux d'acier perforé, de plaque de verre givré ainsi que d'une trentaine d'oeuvres créées par les peintres de La Raza […]" Odile Hénault, "Rue Saint-Laurent, deux joyaux du nouveau design."

Sub-series
AP001.S1.SS05
Description:
Cette série est composée de photographies personnelles et professionnelles de Cormier. Elle comprend des photographies de Cormier et de sa compagne, de sa famille, de ses voyages en Europe et des divers évènements sociaux auxquels il participa. Elle témoigne aussi de l’intérêt que Cormier possédait pour la photographie, puisqu’il prit un grand nombre des clichés de cette série. Au niveau professionnel, la plupart des bâtiments de Cormier sont photographiés, dont l'Université de Montréal, la Cour Suprême du Canada, le Grand Séminaire de Québec et l'Annexe au Palais de Justice de Montréal. Plusieurs projets sont très bien documentés et permettent de visualiser l'évolution des chantiers de construction. Pour les projets majeurs, plusieurs photographies montrent en détail les différents aspects du bâtiment tels que la façade, les pièces, la décoration ou les escaliers. La série contient également des films personnels par Ernest Cormier montrant diverses activités de familles et d'amis et voyages.

Architectural projects
AP004.S1
Description:
The Architectural projects series documents 33 projects that reflect A.D. Thacker's work as an architect. The series primarily consist of drawings depicting structures that Thacker designed after beginning his own practice in 1926 until his death in 1938, but also includes some work from 1913. However, many of the drawings and documentation within the series are not dated. The drawings include elevation, perspective and plan proposals and occasionally occaisionally studies. In addition to the drawings, the series also contains documentation of the drawings - including reprographic copies, photographs, and some textual material. The projects are largely situated in Quebec and include locations such as Hampstead, Westmount, Kanawá:ke, Dundee, Valois, Morin Heights, Chambly, and Halifax, Nova Scotia. *CONTENT WARNING* The united church project in Kanawá:ke (AP004.S1.D4) was associated with the Federal Indian Day School system established by the Canadian government with the aid of various religious organizations.
