Extent and medium:

Scope and content:
This project series documents a bus shelter in Fredericton, New Brunswick in 1975. The office identified the project number as 7505.
This project consisted of the design of a bus shelter in front of the Fredericton Public Library, located at the corners of Campbell and Carleton Streets. For this project, Parkin Architects Planners partnered with architectural firm Graham Napier Associates to form the joint venture referred to as Graham Parkin Architects Engineers Planners. The library was also designed by Graham Parkin a few years earlier. The firms eventually lost this contract, based on the city's opinion that the firms hadn't acted quickly enough, the design was too permanent and the location was no longer available.
The project is recorded through correspondence dating from 1975.
