DR1987:0865:001-023
Description:
- This group of correspondence, clippings and other documents was compiled by the architect, Lloyd Wright, for his own record while he was pursuing the commission for Boeing Airport, Burbank, Los Angeles County, California. He was not successful in obtaining the commission. The correspondence includes letters to and from Lloyd Wright, drafts for and carbon copies of these same letters, and telegrams to Lloyd Wright. Other documents include three newspaper clippings, an estimate and notes. Of the clippings, one reports on the beginning of work on Boeing Airport, the second announces a new meteorological station for pilots in the San Fernando Valley, and includes details of other aviation industry investments in the area, and the third is another account of the initiation of Boeing Airport. The latter clipping is folded up with a sheet noting the address of Lloyd St. John. Although the estimate is not identified by project name, it was probably prepared for Lloyd Wright's Boeing Airport proposal, which included an airport, manufacturing plant and other amenities, all mentioned in the estimate.

Description:
Part of a miscellaneous group of visual and textual documents collected by Oswald Mathais Ungers, apparently to represent the work of artists/architects in Die gläserne Kette. This group includes both text and drawings from Die gläserne Kette, as well as other correspondence. Texts are mostly reprographic copies of letters, with a few typescripts and manuscripts. The documents were accessioned as received in a grey folder inscribed with Taut's name and pseudonum and including a smaller paper folder inscribed "Not published."

Projet
AP178.S1.1983.PR04
Description:
The project series documents the 1983 design entry for the Kulturforum. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 21/80. The office assigned the date 1983 for this project. This project was a competition entry for the International Architectural Exhibition Berlin competition (International Bauaustellung, IBA, circa 1979-1987), an urban renewal strategy for West Berlin, Germany. Siza also submitted five other entries to the IBA: Görtlitzer Bad swimming pool; Block 70 and 89 (Fränkelufer residential complex); Bonjour Tristesse (Block 121); Block 11-12; and Monument to Gestapo victims. The Kulturforum was a complex of cultural buildings. The site underwent many changes during Nazi Germany and post-war with the construction of the National Library of Staatsbibliothek, designed by Hans Scharoun. Two examples of features that the IBA asked participants to include in their design proposals were to exclude vehicle traffic between the library and national gallery, and to reinterpret the Forum space. Documenting this project are several sketches and studies. There are also plans, elevations, and axonometric drawings of site plans. Siza’s office has indicated on some of the studies that they were possibly not created by Siza. Where this is the case it has been noted with the physical material. Photographs and negatives document the competition site and model, and there are transparencies and slides of drawings. Also included is textual documentation on the competition site and a few letters from members of the Berlin Senate, two of which are from Brigitte Cassirer (later Brigitte Fleck).

Projet
AP018.S1.1974.PR11
Description:
This project series documents planning and construction for Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, Jamaica from 1974-1977. The office identified the project number as 7413. This project consisted of renovations to the existing terminal 1 building, the addition of a terminal 2 and the addition of a small charter terminal. This work was undertaken in joint venture with other Canadian firms who worked together on airport planning projects around the world. The firms for this project consisted of Parkin Architects Planners as the architects, the Montreal Engineering Company Limited, Peat, Marwick and Partners, Ffolkes, Harrison & Partners Ltd., Rutkowski, Bradford & Partners, and IBI Group. The new terminal was a roughly rectangular building with paving and landscaping extending towards the parking lot. A long, narrow hallway moving diagonally from the main building was used for planing and deplaning. It was predicted that terminal 2 would need to be expanded in 1990 to deal with increased international traffic. This project was originally proposed in a report to plan developments for Jamaican airports from 1970-1990. It originally proposed airports in Kingston and Montego Bay, but only this Montego Bay project was realized. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1970-1977. The drawings include plans, sections, elevations, details, schedules, perspectives and development and phasing drawings. The textual records consist of correspondence, project reports and studies, the original 30 year development plan, drawing lists, schedules, specifications, contractor records, progress reports, meeting minutes, interoffice letters, daily diaries and tender documents.
