Project
AP018.S1.1973.PR12
Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the Toronto Sun building in downtown Toronto from 1973-1975. The office identified the project number as 7312. This project consisted of a 97,000 square foot office building and press plant at 333 King Street East, spanning to Front, Ontario, and Berkley Streets. The design included spaces for administrative, editorial and publishing offices as well as a press hall, platemaking area, photo studio, mail room, roll storage and composing area. The printing and publishing side of the structure was designed to accomodate for further expansion, which occurred in the decade following its original construction. The total cost of the project was $3.7 million. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, textual records, and a project painting dating from 1972-1976. The drawings consist largely of reprographic copies of floor plans, elevations, landscaping, details and site plans, but some sketches are included. There are also presentation boards of floor plans and the design and construction schedule. The photographs show printing presses and press buildings. The textual records include correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, consultancy records, specifications, site reports, building and zoning records, financial records, tender documents, change orders, contract data, deficiency lists and supplementary instructions. Box AP018.S1.1973.PR12.007 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

Perspective for the proposed National Life Insurance Company Office Building, Chicago, Illinois
DR1985:0290
Description:
- This drawing, one of a number of street-level perspectives which exist for the proposed National Life Insurance Company Building, is executed primarily in graphite. There is, however, one figure at bottom right whose coat and hat are drawn in orange coloured pencil. As this figure is cut off, and there is no title at the bottom of this drawing, and all the corners have been cut on a curve, it seems possible that this drawing was cropped, perhaps when it was re-mounted. Wright's decorative sense is displayed clearly by the variation of detailed geometric patterns used in the different parts of this building.
