Projet
AP018.S1.1976.PR04
Description:
This project series documents a non-profit, cooperative housing development in Toronto from 1976-1977. The office identified the project number as 7606 This project investigated four schemes located on Queen's Quay at the shore of Lake Ontario for the Labour Council Development Foundation. The building was referred to as MT 27, because it was to replace the existing marine terminal 27 building. The schemes included a series of V-shaped buildings arranged in S formations, a more classic series of rectangular buildings mixed on the property with hexagonal shaped buildings, and one with just hexagonal buildings. These schemes, arranged on the 3.7 acre site, ranged in size from three to nine storeys and included apartments of varying sizes. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1977. The drawings include site plan schemes, typical unit plans and sections, while the textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports and the project proposal.

Description:
This project series documents a feasibility study for a hotel and condominium development in Burlington, Ontario in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7601. The project consisted of a study to determine the feasibility of building a hotel and condominium on the historic Brant Inn site, a famous hotel which had closed about a decade previously. The proposed development was approximately 30 storeys with 350 condos, 250 hotel rooms, a convention facility and parking garage. It is unclear from the project materials whether the project was ever built. A project list, created by the office, which accompanied the donation of this fonds referred to this project as Hotel and Condominium Feasibility Study for David S. Owen of Warrick Consultants Limited. The project is recorded through a conference report and presentation boards dating from 1976. The presentation boards show site plans and schemes, while one shows a drawing of the New Brant Inn, prepared by architect Visvalois V. Upenicks.

Projet
AP178.S1.1995.PR12
Description:
This project series documents the design for the Instituto de Biofísica in Hombroich, Germany. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 69/90. The office assigned the dates 1995-1996 to this project. The project was commissioned by the Insel Hombroich Foundation. Construction started in 1995, but was delayed until 2006. The project site was located on an old military camp and was used by the Foundation as part of a program for architects to build different types of building. The program for the Institute of Biophysics included office spaces, conference rooms, a meditation center, a music center and five guest apartments. Siza's design was kept and used later with a different interior layout for a new Pavilion for the Insel Hombroich Foundation (see project series AP178.S1.2001.PR02 in this fonds). The project was a collaboration with Rudolf Finsterwalder. Documenting this project are studies and working drawings. Textual materials include project documentation, correspondence and a development plan.
