Projet
AP056.S1.1994.PR14
Description:
This project series documents renovations to the Stratford Festival Theatre in Stratford, Ontario from 1994-1997. The office identified the project number as 9428. This project consisted of the major reimagining and renewal of the famous tent-shaped theatre, which had not previously been updated in the 40 years since its original construction. Conceived with Thomas Payne as the partner-in-charge, the project reconceptualised the existing front-of-house spaces, the performance auditorium and the formal arrival space. The auditorium, which contained a Greek-style thrust stage inspired by Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, saw an increase in comfort by eliminating some seats to make the remaining more spacious. With this, site lines to the stage and the theatre acoustics were also improved. A large expansion of the theatre's lobby, box office, festival shops and member spaces accommodated the theatre's growing number of patrons. On the outside, a large curved entrance drive was added with extensive landscaping and gardens to add to the grandeur of the formal arrival area. A marquee space was also added to the building, which housed a year-round terrace. Thomas Payne created this project's original master plan under a different project number in 1988, but it should be noted that some materials in both projects are overlapping (see project series AP056.S1.1988.PR03 in this fonds). The project is recorded through drawings, presentation paintings and some textual materials dating from 1988-1996. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, presentation drawings, drawings for the model, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, details and drawings of new furnishings. The textual records, which describe the project's design concept, are part of a presentation book.

Projet
AP018.S1.1960.PR02
Description:
This project series documents the Imperial Oil Ontario region office in North York, Ontario from 1960-1962. The office identified the project number as 6049. This project consisted of a three-storey, 110,000 square foot building located at the corner of Don Mills Road and Eglington Avenue. The front entrance was accessed from a circular driveway off Wynford Drive, with parking lots on either side that held 330 vehicles. The basement level had storage rooms, machine and boiler rooms, a telephone switch gear room and shipping areas. The first floor included food service areas, offices, locker rooms, and a doctor's office complete with x-ray rooms, treatment areas and a quiet room for female employees, among others. The second floor contained administrative areas for accounting, data control and banking, while the third floor contained more offices. The building's frame consisted of a rectangular steel skeleton faced with concrete panels. The ground level was recessed 20 feet to allow for sidewalks around the building. Concrete columns at this level supported the upper two storeys. The landscaped surroundings include long, fountain-spotted reflecting pools. This project won the silver Massey Medal for Architecture in 1964, as well as an honourable distinction at the International Exhibition of Architects VIII Biennial of São Paula in 1965. The project is recorded through drawings, textual records and a photograph dating from 1961-1970. The drawings are mostly reprographic copies that include plans, sections, elevations, details, schedules and electrical, mechanical and structural drawings. The textual records consist of specifications originally arranged with the drawings. The photograph shows the finished buillding.

À bas les parcs?
Les parcs sont-ils néfastes ? Ces bouts de terrain et maigres plans d’eau que nous séquestrons répondent à un besoin confus de « nature ». Ils contribuent sans doute à notre bonne santé, mais ne servent-ils pas aussi à excuser nos mauvaises habitudes? Les parcs ne sont pas anodins. Dans les villes, les parcs sont des actifs immobiliers et des « commodités » urbaines(...)
