Lionel March fonds

Synopsis:
The Lionel March fonds, circa 1957-2017, documents the work and activities of architect and professor Lionel March. The records within this fonds illustrate March’s architectural career, representing five professional and personal building projects, including the 1964 Whitehall plan; as well as his academic career in research and teaching, spanning England and North America, most notably March’s work with the Centre for Land Use and Built Form Studies (now the Martin Centre) and his research at UCLA. The fonds is largely composed of books from March’s library, textual records, slides and photographs, and drawings.
