Projet
AP018.S1.1958.PR04
Description:
This project series documents the control tower at the Toronto International Airport in Mississauga from 1958-1964. The office identified the project number as 5872. This project consisted of a 100 foot high control tower built onto a single storey building totalling 30,600 square feet in size. The reinforced concrete tower was hexagonal in shape with a steel frame and reinforced concrete slab floor. A transparent skydome forms the ceiling of the central lobby, providing a view of the floor and supporting shafts of the tower. This project won a Silver Massey Medal for Architecture in 1964 and recognition from Canadian Architect magazine and the Beautify Toronto Campaign for its significance. The project is recorded through a presentation board of a photo of the skydome dating from around 1964.

Description:
This project series documents a proposal for a People Mover System for the Metropolitan Toronto Zoo in 1972. The office identified the project number as 7224. The project was a transportation system for the zoo, which required a guideway be built without disrupting the zoo's terrain as well as ensuring that the fences were out of passenger view. Parkin Architects Planners' worked with the engineering firm M.M. Dillion Limited and were in conversation with Boeing to build the vehicle for the system. The project is recorded through several topographic drawings showing the proposed design for the tracks, also included is a file of correspondence, mostly with M.M. Dillion Limited and Boeing, as well a file of notes and photocopies of drawings for the passenger vehicle. A letter in the correspondance file suggests that Parkin Architects Planners where not choosen to build this project.

Projet
AP018.S1.1962.PR02
Description:
This project series documents the Bata Limited office building in Toronto from 1962-1965. The office identified the project number as 6243. This project consisted of a three-storey office building for the shoe company, Bata Limited, located at the corners of Eglington Avenue and Don Mills Road. The building consisted of a basement with mechanical equipment and storage, a first floor with waiting room, cafeteria, kitchen and conference rooms, and second and third floors with general office space. This pavilion style building had 27 tree-like columns lining the outside that the top two storeys rested upon. The interior had similar columns to carry the design inside the building. This project was celebrated as an iconic example of modern architecture in Canada. It has since been demolished. The project is recorded through construction drawings, which are mostly reprographic copies, dating from 1963-1964.
