Description:
La série documente le projet de Luc Laporte pour le pavillon et l'île du Bassin Bonsecours dans le Vieux-Port de Montréal. Le projet à été realisé entre 1991 et 1993. Laporte a été engagé comme sous-traitant par la firme d'architectes Cardinal & Hardy pour développer leur projet d'aménagement du bassin Bonsecours à l'est de la jetée Jacques-Cartier. Les premiers contacts entre l'atelier de Luc Laporte et la Société du Vieux-Port de Montréal (S.V.P.M.) ont été établis en juin 1991 et la première proposition d'aménagement a été présentée à la S.V.P.M. en décembre de la même année. Le Bassin Bonsecours avait été remblayé et était recouvert d'asphalte depuis plusieurs années. Le concept de Cardinal & Hardy proposait d'y créer un plan d'eau peu profond ayant les dimensions du bassin d'origine, et de garder au centre une surface excavée moins profondément pour former une île. Le concept, qui favorisait une esthétique industrielle, suggérait aussi la mise en place d'un pavillon et d'un réseau de passerelles linéaires reliant l'île située au centre du Bassin Bonsecours à divers points de la jetée qui l'entoure. Laporte a modifié considérablement l'esprit de cette proposition en faisant du pavillon le point d'accès unique à l'île. Situé au niveau de l'île et en contrebas de la promenade de la jetée, le pavillon agit comme un portique de verre et d'acier s'ouvrant d'un côté sur un théâtre en plein air, et de l'autre sur l'île, dont la géométrie orthogonale signale sa nature artificielle. Plutôt qu'un objet dans l'espace, le pavillon est un dispositif qui crée, au milieu d'un vaste espace ouvert, un lieu abrité des vents. Sa structure incorpore un belvédère dont l'élévation est suffisante pour porter un regard vers le fleuve au-delà de la jetée. Le pavillon est le point focal du réseau de sentiers dont le pourtour adopte une géométrie simple (cercle et rectangle) et l'intérieur accommode des chemins informels typiques des squares montréalais. Laporte a aussi dessiné les lampadaires et les garde-corps d'acier qui ceinturent le pourtour du bassin. Suite à la présentation de décembre 1991, Laporte a du réduire la taille du pavillon. L'échéance serrée a forcé l'atelier à apporter ces changements durant la phase de production des dessins d'exécution. Plusieurs autres changements ont aussi été apportés durant la construction, dont l'ajout imprévu d'un local pour abriter une polisseuse à glace et la modification par les architectes de paysage de la pente et de la surface des gradins du théâtre. Bien que les installations du Vieux-Port furent inaugurées le 8 mai 1992, les travaux de construction du pavillon se sont poursuivis jusqu'à l'automne suivant et le restaurant projeté ne fut jamais réalisé. La série contient les documents fournis par la Société du Vieux-Port de Montréal (projet préliminaire de Cardinal & Hardy, contrat de service, notes de réunion de chantier, correspondance), les esquisses préliminaires et la maquette de travail qui ont servi à la conception d'une première proposition d'aménagement pour l'île du Bassin Bonsecours et le pavillon qui lui donne accès ainsi que les documents de présentation de la première proposition (plans, coupes, élévations et maquette). La séries contient aussi les plans d'exécution du projet réalisé, les plans de la structure d'acier et les dessins d'atelier nécessaires à la construction, tous les devis et addendas émis par la Société du Vieux-Port pour la réalisation du projet et la correspondance de chantier documentant le processus de construction et la gestion du chantier.

Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of a library and an addition to city hall in Fredericton, New Brunswick from 1972-1975. The office identified the project number as 7226. This project consisted of two distinct parts; a public library constructed at the corners of Campbell and Carleton Streets, and an addition to city hall whose original building was constructed at the corners of Queen and York Streets around 1875. These two buildings were located two blocks from one another, but a master plan for the project shows that the separating streets would be removed in favour of a pedestrian friendly landscape. Both buildings were located next to the St. John River. For this project, Parkin Architects Planners partnered with architectural firm Graham Napier Associates to form the joint venture referred to as Graham Parkin Architects Engineers Planners. The brick-clad addition to city hall nearly doubled the square footage of the ground and first floors. The original city hall was four levels and the addition was two, with a mechanical penthouse on top. The new areas included departmental offices such as planning, engineering and sewage, a drafting room, conference room, and reception, among others. The library consisted of a two-storey, brick-clad building that was approximately 24,000 square feet in size with a 16 car parking lot. The ground floor included reception and exhibit areas, stacks, administration offices, bookmobiles, and staff lockers, while the second level had stacks and reading areas, audiovisual areas and a staff work room and break room. The library also had a mechanical penthouse on top. The project is recorded through drawings, including mounted presentation boards, photographic materials and textual records dating from 1972-1978. The drawings consist of original sketches, plans, sections, elevations and details of both city hall and the library, and some drawings used for construction. There are also drawings of the original city hall, first drafted around 1875. The photographs show existing buildings and the construction progress of the project. The textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, specifications, consultancy documentation, a soil investigation, research and drawing transmittal records. File AP018.S1.1972.PR18.020 contains an index to the textual materials, which was created by the office.

Description:
The CCA collection includes albums of drawings for some of Charles Rohault de Fleury's most important public architectural projects, built and unbuilt. They provide valuable insight into his design development process, construction techniques, and flexibility regarding building types and styles, as well as illuminating the larger issues of urban planning and the complex interaction between architect, contractor, and entrepreneur in mid-19th century France. The neo-Moorish Hippodrome National (DR1974:0002:017:001-060) - an ephemeral structure constructed of a wood frame with canvas sheathing- was built adjacent to the Place de l'Étoile in 1845 and destroyed in 1856. The documents and drawings in the album provide a highly detailed and complete overview of the project from the study of historical models to contract drawings. Written documentation, including cost estimates, a contract, daily accounts of construction, entrepreneur's accounts, and correspondence with the principal contractor, is particularly revealing of the working procedures on a large commercial project. In 1855 Charles and Auguste Joseph Pellechet constructed the Chambre des Notaires on the newly transformed Place du Chatelet - the intended centre point of Haussmann's 'Nouveau Paris' (1). The CCA album contains primarily transfer lithographed working and contract drawings signed by the entrepreneurs and/or contractors (DR1974:0002:022:001-021). The plans reflect Charles' sensitive integration of iron and masonry construction, which allowed for abundant fenestration on the side facades, while maintaining the traditional aspects of character and solidity required in a prominent urban building. Charles' approach to the design of more utilitarian structures is indicated in his album of competition drawings for a municipal slaughterhouse submitted to the city of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 1846-1847 (DR1974:0002:023:001-012). His interpretation of the written programme (included in the album) and the resulting design, is strongly influenced by his father's previous slaughterhouse projects, as well as his own for La Villete, 1835-1836 (see DR1974:0002:014:001-104 in Hubert Rohault de Fleury's Public and Urban Architecture (file CI001.S3.D1)). The pared down Neoclassical style of the slaughterhouse is typical of both Charles and Hubert's utilitarian structures. Charles' largest public urban project outside of Paris was for an unexecuted Hôtel de Prefecture (Departement de la Vienne) and Hôtel de Ville for the city of Poitiers, 1859-1860 (DR1974:0002:020:001-050). The project for the Louis XIIIth style Hotel de Prefecture is fairly complete and includes many working drawings, while the Francis Ist style Hotel de Ville is much less developed and consists primarily of unbound sketches and finished drawings. A site plan indicates that Charles intended the Hôtel de Prefecture and Hôtel de Ville to be located nearly opposite each other and connected by a major thoroughfare. The placement of both structures in the western quarter of the city probably reflects an earlier urban renewal plan proposed by the architects Morandiere et Compaing in 1849. The Hôtel de Prefecture (1864-1868) and Hotel de Ville (1869-1876) were eventually built after designs by Antoine Guerinot, in the same style, and on sites close to those proposed by Charles. Drawings and engravings of antique and contemporary theatres, fountains, honorific monuments, and large public projects by other architects are collected in album DR1974:0002:010:001-048 for reference purposes (some of these may have been collected by his father Hubert).

Description:
The CCA collection includes albums of drawings for some of Charles Rohault de Fleury's most important public architectural projects, built and unbuilt. They provide valuable insight into his design development process, construction techniques, and flexibility regarding building types and styles, as well as illuminating the larger issues of urban planning and the complex interaction between architect, contractor, and entrepreneur in mid-19th century France. The neo-Moorish Hippodrome National (DR1974:0002:017:001-060) - an ephemeral structure constructed of a wood frame with canvas sheathing- was built adjacent to the Place de l'Étoile in 1845 and destroyed in 1856. The documents and drawings in the album provide a highly detailed and complete overview of the project from the study of historical models to contract drawings. Written documentation, including cost estimates, a contract, daily accounts of construction, entrepreneur's accounts, and correspondence with the principal contractor, is particularly revealing of the working procedures on a large commercial project. In 1855 Charles and Auguste Joseph Pellechet constructed the Chambre des Notaires on the newly transformed Place du Chatelet - the intended centre point of Haussmann's 'Nouveau Paris' (1). The CCA album contains primarily transfer lithographed working and contract drawings signed by the entrepreneurs and/or contractors (DR1974:0002:022:001-021). The plans reflect Charles' sensitive integration of iron and masonry construction, which allowed for abundant fenestration on the side facades, while maintaining the traditional aspects of character and solidity required in a prominent urban building. Charles' approach to the design of more utilitarian structures is indicated in his album of competition drawings for a municipal slaughterhouse submitted to the city of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 1846-1847 (DR1974:0002:023:001-012). His interpretation of the written programme (included in the album) and the resulting design, is strongly influenced by his father's previous slaughterhouse projects, as well as his own for La Villete, 1835-1836 (see DR1974:0002:014:001-104 in Hubert Rohault de Fleury's Public and Urban Architecture (file CI001.S3.D1)).

AP148.S1.1991.PR01
Description:
Project series comprises design and promotional material for a bed entitled "Il carro di giove" designed by Poli in 1991. The bed was made for F.lli Ciulli (likely Fratelli Ciulli), based in Florence, Italy, and an accompanying blanket was made for the textile design company Fanair. The bed project was featured in the 1991 publication Catalogo Armonia by publisher Ponte alla Grazie in Florence, as well as the April 1992 issue of Casa Vogue (no. 240). The design features a large alabaster disc suspended from an iron frame. Project material in the series ranges from early sketches to drawings and collages of the bed in various media, with some drawings overlayed with wax and silver paper. Also included are excerpted pages from the Catalogo Armonia, featuring a conversation with Sergio Cammilli, who commissioned furniture designs from architects and contemporary artists. The Catalogo Armonia pages also feature images of the bed and blanket prototype. This project series includes textile reference studies, though no drawings or designs for the bed's blanket were received from Poli.

Description:
This project series documents a lecture hall building at York University in North York, Ontario from 1964-1965. The office identified the project number as 6413. This project, known as Lecture Hall No. 1, consisted of a two-storey building at York University, to be used for teaching. The basement included mechanical and electrical rooms, while the ground floor was made up of large, two-storey lecture halls, smaller classrooms, and projection rooms. This project was built by John B. Parkin Associates, in a joint venture with Gordon S. Adamson Associates and Shore & Moffat and Partners. These three architecture firms formed a joint venture known as UPACE (University Planners Architects And Consulting Engineer). This project was part of a larger master plan by UPACE, which built more than a dozen buildings for the university during this time. UPACE received a Special Mention Massey Medal in 1967 for the design of this project. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1965. These were a set of drawings issued for tender.

This project was built by John B. Parkin Associates, in a joint venture with Gordon S. Adamson Associates and Shore & Moffat and Partners. These three architecture firms formed a joint venture known as UPACE (University Planners Architects And Consulting Engineer). This project was part of a larger master plan by UPACE, which built more than a dozen buildings for the university during this time. UPACE received a Special Mention Massey Medal in 1967 for the design of this project. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1965. These were a set of drawings issued for tender.
