  • The Mv Cabot and Chimo
    CHAPTER 12 The m.v. Cabot and Chimo (above) each operated weekly from Montreal to St John’s THE 1960s: A NEW NAME, NEW SHIPS AND LAND TRANSPORT The 1960s would bring much change to the Clarke organization. The long-distance passenger services were coming to an end and the company was about to expand through a series of land-based acquisitions to become a nationwide transport operator, rather than the Eastern Canadian shipping company that it had been post-war. The company would have to deal with continued competition to Newfoundland and labour problems in St John's, but by doing so it would put itself in a position to be able to order two large and modern mechanized ships for what would come to be its main route between Montreal and St John's. Older ships would be sold off, others chartered and a new joint venture would be opened to serve Goose Bay and the Arctic. And as the Quebec North Shore highway system developed, the Rivière-du-Loup and Saguenay cross-river ferry operations would be renewed. As ferries replaced passenger ships and other cargo operators came onto the scene, the company would also lose some of its long-standing subsidized services. But at the same time, the scene would be set for entering the overseas trades. Peak Traffic Years In terms of ship movements, the years 1959 and 1960 were the busiest Clarke would ever see, with the company operating no fewer than 500 scheduled sailings in 1960. It also completed innumerable bulk voyages using a large number of chartered vessels.

  • Place Victoria: a Joint Venture Between Luigi Moretti and Pier Luigi Nervi
    PLACE VICTORIA: A JOINT VENTURE BETWEEN LUIGI MORETTI AND PIER LUIGI NERVI Adrian Sheppard, FRAIC McGill University, Montreal INTRODUCTION lace Victoria stands alone amongst Moretti’s many buildings. The very fact that it deviates ideologically and formally from the rest of his oeuvre makes the project significant and P revelatory of Moretti’s architecture and of the man. The project neither follows the architectural principles of his prewar Rationalist period, nor those of his later expressionist phase. This divergence from his lifelong thinking is more the result of circumstances than the outcome of a re-evaluation of a well-defined design approach. The saga of the design process is a fascinating one for it illustrates how Moretti’s early ideas for the urban skyscraper changed continuously with his increased knowledge and awareness of the problem. He began by attempting to redefine the form and the use of the modern high-rise, but ended with an elegant landmark rather than a breakthrough. Instead of the heroic sculptural object he had hoped to create, he produced a highly functional and very beautiful tower. By Moretti’s earlier (and later) standards, the final version of Place Victoria is a remarkably disciplined and controlled work of architecture in which the usual concerns for self- expression and visual exhilaration are absent. This new formal clarity and structural logic are in great part attributable to his collaborator, engineer, Pier Luigi Nervi. The concept of Place Victoria is the outcome of a coming together of a radical architect and a conservative engineer. In culture and temperament, Nervi and Moretti were opposites.
