Projet
AP018.S1.1976.PR10
Description:
This project series documents the master plan for the CN Railways properties in Toronto in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7615. During this time, Parkin Architects Planners were developing a number of projects in downtown Toronto, in the CN Tower area. This project appears to consist of the master planning for a number of those projects, which were directly or closely associated with CN Railways due to their proximity to the train yards. The majority of drawings for this project show site plans of the area, which include buildings such as the Ontario Congress and Trade Centre, an office building at the corners of York and Front Streets, the CN Telecommunications building, and a pedestrian mall above Station Street. The pedestrian mall is the focus of sections and presentation drawings included in the materials. These include presentation boards of drawings of the pedestrian mall, which was connected to Union Station at the corners of Front and Bay Streets. These records date from1976 to around 1978. The drawings refer to the project as Walker House Hotel, a historic hotel located on the corners of Front and York Streets, which would be demolished in order to accommodate these projects.

AP018.S1.1979.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the Bell Trinity Square Administration Building in Toronto from 1979-1984. The office identified this project as 7903. The building, commissioned by Bell Canada, was constructed at the corner of Bay Street and Albert Street. The building is made up of 2 towers joined by an atrium. The project also included construction of several tunnels to connect the building with neighbouring city hall and the Eaton Centre. The project is recorded through original drawings, reprographic copies, presentation boards, construction photographs, and textual records dating from 1978-1985. The textual records show client and consultant correspondence, technical specifications for contractors, site reports, meeting minutes, contemplated change orders for design and technical details, and project budgets and finances.

- Suzanne K. Williamson indicates that this photograph shows the second enclosure and tower "12" (at the far right of the image) of the Krak de Chevaliers Castle, Ottoman Empire (now Syria) from the northeast (Nov. 1986). Further research should include verification of this information and identification of the source(s) from which it was obtained. The cardinal point indicated in the title, also provided by Williamson, is presumed to be correct.

Description:
- This sheet contains a number of drawings, two of which are sketch elevations for airport buildings. While the upper complex has the scale and massing of many of Wright's Los Angeles Municipal Airport drawings, the lower drawing, with its tall observation tower standing out against a low station building, seems closer to his designs for Boeing Airport, Burbank, California (see DR1987:0391), or the Lehigh Airports Competition (see DR1987:0359).

Projet
AP075.S1.1961.PR01
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.
