Arthur Erickson was one of Canada’s most prolific and influential architects.
He was chosen as the campus planner and his firm Erickson Massey designed the Academic/Residence Building which opened its unfinished doors in the Fall of 1971. The 912 ft long, 9 story building embraced learning and living together in one structure, which encompassed much of Erickson’s philosophy on university campuses in general and higher education in particular.
This talk will showcase the different models proposed by Erickson/Massey and what eventually took shape—what we now know as University Hall.
