Cette sous-série porte sur le travail de documentation photographique de Robert Duchesnay du dôme géodésique Climatron dome à St. Louis, Missouri, aux États-Unis. Conçu en 1960 par les architectes Murphy et Mackey de St. Louis en utilisant le système conçu par Buckminter Fuller, il abrite la serre et le pavillon principal du Missouri Botanical Garden. Le Climatron est la première serre complètement climatisée au monde. Son diamètre est de 175 pieds. Le pavillon sera fermé en 1988 pour un vaste projet de rénovations qui dureront jusqu'en 1990. Le bâtiment est toujours en activité. La sous-série contient cinq photographies, de l'extérieur et de l'intérieur du dôme, prises par Robert Duchesnay en 1990 après sa réouverture à la suite des rénovations. Source: Duchesnay, Robert.

Description:
This project series documents the design of the new National Gallery of Canada for a limited architectural competition in Ottawa, Ontario in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7630. This project consisted of designing a new gallery to house Canada's most prized artworks and artefacts in a competition run by Public Works Canada on behalf of National Museums of Canada. The building site was down the street from Canada's parliament buildings, with views of the Ottawa River and across to Quebec. The design submitted by Parkin Architects Planners was highly modular, with cubes turned on an angle making up the majority of the building. The six-storey building design had three floors of galleries, while other levels were to be used for staff, services, and storage. A panel of international architects and representatives anonymously chose Parkin's design as the winner of the competition in early 1977. However, after cited lack of funds, and controversies over the chosen site and the way in which the competition was run, the newly formed Canada Museums Construction Company sought another design and architect for the new National Gallery. The dispute over this decision is recorded in materials from this project series and related project series. Eventually, Parkin did participate in the construction of the National Gallery's final design, but as the minor partner in a joint venture with Moshe Safdie (see materials in project series AP018.S1.1983.PR02 in this fonds for more information). The project is recorded through drawings, including presentation boards, photographs, and textual records dating from 1974-1985. The drawings are a mix of original design drawings and site drawings. The site drawings were prepared for the competitors by Public Works Canada and the National Capital Commission. The drawings prepared by these government agencies are bilingual. The textual records primarily consist of guidelines, specifications, and other information from Public Works Canada to the competitors. The textual documentation also includes financial records and correspondence on the controversy surrounding the competition.

Oberlander worked on this project in 2004 with architectural firm Busby, Perkins + Will Architects. The project consisted in a redesign of the landscaping for the two coutyards separated by a central pavilion and surrounded by the four other blocks of the Buchanan Building. The concept was to created a courtyard for ceremonies and activities and a courtyard for scultpure and contemplation. The east courtyard, designed for sitting and contemplation, included paved pathways circulating amount patches of grass and flower beds, with seating alvoces under the preserved trees to add shade. The west courtyard, designed for activities, consisted in a large parved area with a curving edge along the east side of the courtyard to provide seating and includes a covered café and a water feature. The project series contains sketches by Oberlander, design development drawings, including site plans, landscape plans and concept plans for the courtyards, and presentations drawings, including renderings. The project is also documented through correspondence, including correspondence with architects and consultants, research material, contract, financial documents, specifications, meeting notes, and photographs of existing landscaping.

Reference number:
AP018.S1.1974.PR19
Description:
This project series documents a parking structure for the Toronto International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario from 1974-1975. The office identified the project number as 7425. This project consisted of a five-level, above ground parking garage with a capacity of approximately 5000 vehicles. The parking structure was designed for Terminal Two at the airport (now known as Toronto Pearson International Airport) and would connect departing and arriving passengers from the airport to the structure via tunnels. Parkin Architect Planners were hired as the consulting architects for this project by Fenco-Barton Engineers. Fenco Barton was awarded with the Prestressed Concrete Institute Award in 1979 to for excellence in architectural and engineering design using precast and prestressed concrete. The project is recorded through drawings, photographic materials and textual records dating from 1974-1975. The drawings are mostly original sketches of the design. Photographs and negatives show research on other parking structures. The textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters and project notes. Box AP018.S1.1974.PR19.009 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office

This project series documents a parking structure for the Toronto International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario from 1974-1975. The office identified the project number as 7425. This project consisted of a five-level, above ground parking garage with a capacity of approximately 5000 vehicles. The parking structure was designed for Terminal Two at the airport (now known as Toronto Pearson International Airport) and would connect departing and arriving passengers from the airport to the structure via tunnels. Parkin Architect Planners were hired as the consulting architects for this project by Fenco-Barton Engineers. Fenco Barton was awarded with the Prestressed Concrete Institute Award in 1979 to for excellence in architectural and engineering design using precast and prestressed concrete. The project is recorded through drawings, photographic materials and textual records dating from 1974-1975. The drawings are mostly original sketches of the design. Photographs and negatives show research on other parking structures. The textual records consist of correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters and project notes. Box AP018.S1.1974.PR19.009 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office
