Initially founded by the provincial government, Discovery Parks became self-governning and independant in 1990. Oberlander worked on this project from 1979-1984 with Russell Vandiver Architects. The project consisted in creating three research building north of University Drive, in the Naheeto Park, with landscaped recreational areas between each buildings. The project was later reduce to one research building located at the corner of Nelson Way and University Drive, on the far east end of the initial site. Oberlander's landscape design consisted in trees planting along the street, the parking lot and the driveway, and creating a recreational area for staff and students.
The project series contains textual records, including research, Oberlander's concept notes, project proposals, correspondence with architect and clients, specifications, and financial documents. The project series also comprises photographs and working drawings, such as proposed sites plans, site plans, grading plans, planting plans and landscape plans.
