Scope and Content

The Architectural projects series documents 33 projects that reflect A.D. Thacker's work as an architect. The series primarily consist of drawings depicting structures that Thacker designed after beginning his own practice in 1926 until his death in 1938, but also includes some work from 1913. However, many of the drawings and documentation within the series are not dated.

The drawings include elevation, perspective and plan proposals and occasionally occaisionally studies. In addition to the drawings, the series also contains documentation of the drawings - including reprographic copies, photographs, and some textual material.

The projects are largely situated in Quebec and include locations such as Hampstead, Westmount, Kanawá:ke, Dundee, Valois, Morin Heights, Chambly, and Halifax, Nova Scotia.

*CONTENT WARNING*

The united church project in Kanawá:ke (AP004.S1.D4) was associated with the Federal Indian Day School system established by the Canadian government with the aid of various religious organizations. See the project series for additional information. Please take care in consulting these records and seek help when needed.
