Description:
This project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Skeena Terrace Low Rent Housing Project, a housing development located on the eastern edge of Vancouver. Oberlander worked on this project between 1961 and 1965. The architectural firm in charge of the project was Underwood, McKinley, Cameron, Wilson & Smith Architects. The project was comprised of an eight-storey apartment tower and twenty-seven three-storey maisonettes. Oberlander was in charge of the landscape design for the twelve-acre site. The project initially included the construction of a roadway cutting the site in two, but was never built due to protests from the community. Oberlander's landscape plan included a design for an outdoor terrace and garden areas for the maisonnettes, a community garden and numerous recreational and social spaces. She also designed play scultpures for small children. The project series contains design development drawings, including landscape plans and planting plans, working drawings, including a site plan and planting plans, a specifications addendum, an invitation to the official inauguration of the project, and photographs, which are mostly of the construction site.

Requirements for the building included enough space for 250 employees and a covered parking lot for 50 vehicles. Siza's proposed design was a cylindrical inclined building with a cylindrical hole through the center. A circulation system with elevators, stairs and ramps inside and outside the office spaces was designed to create a " complex promenade architecturale"[1] . Siza's entry was not selected.
