Projet
AP046.S1.1983.PR02
Description:
This project documents Rose’s involvement with the design phase of the Old Port of Montreal Master Plan, Montréal, Québec and consists mainly of sketches, studies and presentation drawings for the redevelopment project with very few as built or architectural plans. The project materials reflect a Romantic design aesthetic and landscape development through numerous architectural design drawings for public amenities such as park benches, pedestrian walkways, various lighting sources, pavilions and fountains. This project also includes some of Rose’s submissions to the Faubourg Quebec development project which ran concurrent with the Old Port project. For the redevelopment of the Old Port of Montréal, Master Plan, Rose worked with the following firms: Cardinal Hardy e Associes, Chan Krieger & Associates, and Jodoin Lamarre Pratt. Rose was awarded a Progressive Architecture Urban Design Award (1992) and a Prix d’excellence for Urban Design from the Ordre des architectes du Québec (1993) for the realization of this urban project. The textual records in this project include budgets, correspondence, consultation documents, and intra office communiques as well as extensive research material on the history of the Old Port of Montreal including reproductions of historical photographs. The photographs in this project largely reflect the condition of the Old Port and Rue de la Commune prior to redevelopment and were used for reference and in presentation materials.

Projet
AP206.S1.1975.PR01
Description:
This project series documents Aditya Prakash's proposal for an alternative plan for Chandigarh, India, which came to be known as the Linear City. Prakash began developing and advocating for this idea around the early 1970s. The Linear City had two fundamental ideas at its core. The first was to raise the roadways in Chandigarh (or any future city) 10-12 feet from ground level. This, he proposed, would separate vehicular traffic from pedestrians, eliminating all the hazardous impacts of traffic on daily life. The large part of the drawings for this project show sector plans and city blocks with evenly dispersed roundabout roadways as major transit hubs, wrapping around but high above centres of pedestrian activity that included shops, markets and green spaces. The sale of the land below the roadways would pay for the upheaval. He also recommended building this city only a few sectors deep, but endlessly expanding it length-wise, with a raised canal along one side to provide an additional transportation network and irrigation. The second fundamental idea of this city was the creation of self-sustaining sectors in the city plan, advocating that each neighbourhood should have the infrastructure to provide food and recycling for its residents. He fervently argued for the reimagination of modernist Chandigarh by incorporating sustainable, local traditions - the rural should exist in harmony with the urban. In opposition to Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret, he believed areas for recycling, animal husbandry, and growing food should be incorporated into the fabric of the city.[1] This project is recorded largely through original drawings of city plans, perspectives and axonometric views detailing Prakash's new vision for the city. It seems that many of the perspectives were drawn by family friend Sandeep Virmani, after listening to Prakash's ideas.[2] The project is also recorded through photographs, negatives and slides showing plans and the project model. A small amount of notes and an article on the project are also included.
