Project
AP018.S1.1967.PR02
Description:
This project series documents terminal 2 at Toronto International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario from 1967-1972. The office identified the project number as 67121. This project consisted of the first stage of phase two of the building's construction. The three-storey terminal had a linear design with 31 gates and was commissioned by the government Department of Transport Air Services. Terminal One, known as Aeroquay One and also designed by John B. Parkin Associates, could no longer accommodate the growing number of passengers and the wingspan of larger jets. This terminal was constructed to meet the new needs of the airport. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1970-1971, which include construction plans, elevations, details, and mechanical, electrical and structural drawings. Some drawings in this project series were created by the architectural firm Searle, Wilbee, Rowland, which was one of the names used for Parkin's firm after the merger of John B. Parkin Associates with Winnipeg-based firm Smith, Carter and Searle.

Project
AP018.S1.1974.PR13
Description:
This project series documents planning for the redevelopment of Minaki Lodge in Minaki, Ontario in 1974. The office identified the project number as 7415. The Minaki Lodge, owned by the Government of Ontario at the time of this project, was located on the banks of the Winnipeg River and was originally built in 1914 by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. This project consisted of the planning for a major redevelopment of the lodge, its surrounding buildings, and the adjacent land by Minaki Lodge Resorts Ltd. This project proposed two phases of renovations and additions to the main lodge, the motor lodge and power house, the ski chalet and Holst Point on a nearby island. Most of the renovations would be done to the main lodge, including the construction of a new convention hall and approximately 200 additional guest rooms. The realization of these projects can be found under different project numbers assigned by the office (see project series AP018.S1.1974.PR17 and AP018.S1.1974.PR18 in this fonds). The project is recorded through a drawing and textual records dating from 1974. The drawing is a site plan, while the textual records consist of conference reports.

AP018.S1.1974.PR18
Description:
This project series documents additions to the Minaki Lodge in Minaki, Ontario from 1974-1977. The office identified the project number as 7423. The Minaki Lodge, owned by the Government of Ontario at the time of this project, was located on the banks of the Winnipeg River and was originally built in 1914 by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. The site included an X-shaped main lodge, a motor lodge and power house, a ski chalet and Holst Point on a nearby island. This project, which was phase II of the work, consisted of the addition of a new convention hall and approximately 200 new guest rooms to the lodge. Different schemes were proposed for the locations of these new buildings, including attaching them to the existing structure, or building them separately near the main lodge. Phase I of this work began under a different project number, assigned by the office (see project series AP018.S1.1974.PR17 in this fonds). The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1974-1977. Some drawings in this project series include reprographic copies dating from 1925, which were prepared by the Canadian National Railways. Textual records include conference reports and correspondence.
