The greatest concentration of work was produced in Montreal where each of the firms maintained their head office, but there were also a large number of works executed in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The fonds contains 27 884 drawings (24 294 originals plus 3 590 reproductions), 236 photographs, and 18.6 metres of textual documents.
