AP018.S1.1973.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the Eaton’s store building at Dundas Square in Toronto from 1973-1977. The office identified the project number as 7303. This project, commissioned by The T. Eaton Co. Limited, consisted of a one million square foot department store with thirteen floors, ten above ground and three below. The building boasted nine floor of retail space, seamlessly connected through elevators and escalators. The remaining floors hosted office and storage spaces. Located at the corner of Yonge and Dundas streets, the Eaton’s store was connected to the Eaton Centre mall to its south. The mall, designed and built simultaneously with the Eaton’s store, was designed by the architecture firm Craig Zeidler Strong. For the Eaton’s store project, Parkin Architects Planners created a joint venture with architect C. Blakeway Millar, referred to as Parkin Millar in the documentation. Parkin Millar was the associate architects on this project, with the Eaton’s company architect, E.L. Hankinson, working as the primary architect. Each of the firms mentioned worked closely together to develop a cohesive design for the Eaton’s store and Eaton’s Centre mall, which is evident in the materials. The project is recorded through drawings, textual records, a book and presentation boards dating from 1973-1977. There are a large number of original drawings and sketches for the project. Most of the reprographic copies are arranged within the textual materials. There are presentation boards of the Vancouver Eaton's store in this project series that were likely used as reference by the architects. The textual records consist of correspondence, meeting minutes, site reports, change orders, consultancy records, inter-office letters, and specifications. Also in this project series is a special edition of the Eaton News, a monograph with in depth descriptions of the project.

Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the medical clinic building at the Etobicoke General Hospital site in Etobicoke, Ontario from 1974-1980. The office identified the project number as 7428. At the same time that Parkin Architects Planners was constructing the Etobicoke General Hospital, they began working on this project, an adjacent medical clinic that would be attached to the hospital via tunnel. This project consisted of an 80 suite medical centre with a proposed space of 65,000 square feet including the building’s basement. The building shared architectural unity with the neighbouring hospital but was built at a distance in order to allow for future expansions of the hospital. In the project materials, the building is also referred to as the Professional Building. A prominent part of this project was design work for the radiology department in the clinic. It should be noted when viewing textual records and drawings in this project series that many are entitled Rexdale Radiological Services Limited. This project originally began under a different project number assigned by the office, but was built under this project number after the building's location was changed. This original project is also described in the fonds (see project series AP018.S1.1972.PR14). The project is recorded through drawings, photographs and textual records dating from 1974-1980. A large part of the drawings show site plans, but elevations, sections, details and floor plans are also included. The photographs track the construction progress of the project. The textual records include correspondence, meeting minutes and reports, specifications, tender documents, change orders, supplementary instructions, design records, site reports and detail planning records. Box AP018.S1.1974.PR22.009 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.
