Peel 3661, Accessibility 1st Floor, Installing An Interior Lift

Type: Construction / Status: Design

The Charlotte R. Harrisson House, designed in 1912 according to the plans of architect Robert Findlay, illustrates the narrowing of the lots by the differentiated treatment of the two side facades. 

Main Entrance, Peel 3661
The one to the north, close to the lot line, is treated as a secondary façade by using, among other things, brick as cladding, while the one to the south, with its stone cladding identical to the street façade, has a monumental gallery enclosed by two overhangs, thus providing a view of the downtown core. 

The arched openings and the balustrade of the balcony on the main face give a common language to these two facades, but do not give them a comparable monumentality.

The house, divided into five apartments in 1946, was then occupied by Marianopolis College between 1952 and 1975. It was acquired by ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ University in 1976. It is currently used by the Faculty of Education.
