In this group project students will choose a potential historical building and complete research about the building. Based on the information you collect, you will decide whether you think the building could be designated as a historical site. TIPS FOR FINDING BUILDINGS:
YOUR PROJECT: Report Layout: Work in a team of three people each. The report should have a title page, a table of contents and a bibliography. Structure the report layout by adding headings to the sections. Use abbreviated subtitles from the questions below for each heading. PART 1: Find the building or site you would like to research and obtain your teacher's approval of your choice.
PART 2: Remember to go to the Measured Drawings and the glossary at this website and study the architectural features that contribute to the historical value of buildings and sites. In the second part of the assignment students will research and describe the architectural features which would make the building a good heritage place. Read the Municipal Bylaw, 880 to see the criteria for heritage conservation. 1.) Describe what is important about the building that makes it have historical value. Describe the architectural features and any other qualities that warrant the building's heritage status designation.(kerr Alistair, History in Art 487, Introduction to Heritage Conservation, Assignment#3") PART 3 OR EXTRA ACTIVITY: As a class, submit your research as proposals to your city council. The instructions and guidelines for doing this are in Bylaw 880, Designation of Heritage Conservation Areas. |
