Projet
AP018.S1.1976.PR13
Description:
This project series documents the site development of an office building for J. Douglas Crashley in downtown Toronto from 1976-1977. The office identified the project number as 7618. During this time, J. Douglas Crashley, a prominent Toronto entrepreneur, sought to develop an office building in downtown Toronto. The site was located at the corner of Front and York Streets, with the project consisting of a proposed eight storey office building with retail spaces and underground parking. This site development also proposed connections to nearby attractions such as the CN Tower, Union Station and Congress Centre. The project is often referred to as the Walker House Hotel, due to the fact that it was the building located on the property at this time. Three years earlier, in 1973, J.D. Crashley had commissioned a site investigation of various locations in downtown Toronto for his office building, including this site, which was completed under a different project number assigned by the office (see project series AP018.S1.1973.PR13, also described in this fonds). The project is recorded through correspondence dating from 1977.

Projet
AP075.S1.1952.PR01
Description:
This project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape design for Schuylkill Falls, a public housing development on Ridge Avenue, in the East Falls neighbourhood of Philadelphia. Oberlander worked on this project from 1952-1955, after she was recruited by architect Oskar Stonorov. Oberlander worked on the landscaping with Dan Kiley. The project was initally divided in six phases and was planned to spread across five city blocks. One of the phases included the construction of two sixteen-storey housing towers, but only one was built. The building was demolished in 1996. The project series contains five landscape plans for all five city blocks project and a set of landscape specifications, the first written by Oberlander.

Description:
- This elevation shows an alternate design for the ribbed or V-shaped decorative motif to be used on the face of piers on the exterior of the plane sheds, station and observation tower. The architect is working out the thickness of the ribbing. A detail similar to the elevation appears on the submitted competition panel (DR1987:0359).
