Projet
AP018.S1.1976.PR01
Description:
This project series documents a feasibility study for a hotel and condominium development in Burlington, Ontario in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7601. The project consisted of a study to determine the feasibility of building a hotel and condominium on the historic Brant Inn site, a famous hotel which had closed about a decade previously. The proposed development was approximately 30 storeys with 350 condos, 250 hotel rooms, a convention facility and parking garage. It is unclear from the project materials whether the project was ever built. A project list, created by the office, which accompanied the donation of this fonds referred to this project as Hotel and Condominium Feasibility Study for David S. Owen of Warrick Consultants Limited. The project is recorded through a conference report and presentation boards dating from 1976. The presentation boards show site plans and schemes, while one shows a drawing of the New Brant Inn, prepared by architect Visvalois V. Upenicks.

Description:
This project series documents the Nova Computer Centre in Calgary, Alberta from 1981-1984. The office identified the project number as 8119. This project consisted of a three-storey building with a basement and penthouse, located at 10th Avenue and 15th Street. The building was designed to house the computer equipment of Novalta Properties Ltd., their corporate records, and support staff. The building was separated in two by function with a central atrium in the center. Overall, the project had 131,000 square feet of developable area. The project is recorded through drawings, material samples, and textual records dating from 1981-1984. The drawings include plans, details, elevations and sections. These drawings are marked The Chandler Kennedy Architectural Group, who were the consulting architects on the project.

Description:
This project series documents a Supermarket for the food chain Darrigo's in Toronto, Ontario from 1976-1971. The office identified the project number as 7604. The office also worked on a sub-project as part of this project which they identified as 7604-D. This sub-project appears to be the demolition of an existing building of Darrigo Realty before the constuction of the new one designed by Parkin Architects Planners. The material for this sub-project is also arranged within this project series. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1981. The majority of the drawings are reprographic copies of site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, mechanical, electrical and structural drawings. Textual records includes correspondence with client, contractors, sub-contractors or consultants, also well as tenders, inspection reports, meeting reports and change orders. Box AP018.S1.1976.PR03.001 includes an index to the textual records created by the office.

AP018.S1.1978.PR07
Description:
This project series documents a site study for the new National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario in 1978. The office identified the project number as 7809. In 1977, Parkin Architects Planners won a limited architectural competition for their design of the new National Gallery of Canada. The selected site for the competition, next to the Ottawa River, was controversial due to its uneven ground and lack of access to main streets in Ottawa. This project consisted of an extended site study for the construction of that building following the announcement of the competition winner if the original site was to be used. This was a brief urban design study to consider appropriate massing, exterior spaces, access, and vistas to and from the proposed building. It also included studying the best use of land next to the new gallery. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1978. The textual records include the predesign programme and schemes, correspondence, notes, meeting reports and research.

CI005.S1.1936.PR3
Description:
Construction for the transatlantic ocean liner, S.S. Nieuw Amsterdam – an initiative of the Holland-America Line – began in 1936 and was completed by May 1938. After the death of a leading figure of the Brinkman & Van der Vlugt architectural firm, the director of the Holland-American Line contracted the interior design to several architects, each working in partnership with artists. Oud was responsible for designing the First Class Swimming Pool and Second Class Tourist Lounge and Smoking Room. Oud outfitted the Second Class lounge with a rug, wooden furniture and a parquet dance floor; at one end of the room he set a stage, grand piano, and projection booth. The Smoking Room featured cork floors, panelled walls and a long reading table. The Smoking Room featured club chairs in brown leather and wooden chairs (Taverne et al. 2001, 389-392). Project series includes plans for the Tourist Lounge, and photographs of its interior.
