PGL architectes fonds

Synopsis:
Le fonds PGL architectes, 1959 – 1994, témoigne des activités de la firme d’architecture montréalaise, Papineau Gérin-Lajoie Le Blanc architectes, autant que ses sociétés affiliées et firmes remplaçantes. La majorité du fonds comprend des documents qui représentent 70 projets architecturaux, incluant des projets entrepris à travers le Québec, à Ottawa, à de multiples endroits au Nunavut, ainsi que des projets internationaux. Le fonds met en évidence la participation du PGL dans la construction d'infrastructure coloniale au Nunavik et au Nunavut, y compris les travaux sur des écoles associées avec des foyers fédéraux, qui sont reconnus comme faisant partie du système des pensionnats autochtones du Canada. De plus, le fonds documente l’utilisation des panneaux de fibre de verre modulaires employés par PGL. Pour la plupart, les documents dans ce fonds se composent des dessins, des documents photographiques, et des documents textuels. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The PGL architectes fonds, 1959 - 1994, documents the work and activities of the Montréal-based architecture firm, Papineau Gérin-Lajoie Le Blanc architectes, and its successor and affiliate companies.
