During the year gone by our members participated in the traditional community enterprises and new and worthwhile endeavours were under- taken by the Club. The heretofore good financial position both as to current and welfare account has been maintained if not improved • .... We tried to make the luncheon T{leetings pleasant and meaningful to the membership. It is our endeavour throughout the year to promote Kiwanis fellowship both as between our members as well as our wives and families. There was no r adical departure in the set-up of our club, board and committee me6tings, and much worthwhile discussion took place and much important business was apministered. There were several new ventures undertaken, namely, National Kids ! Day which was an unqualified success, and the bazaar which was also highly successful, not only from the point of view of the financial gain, but also from the point of view of the fellowship as between the women themselves and as between nillny men who helped out . Our attendance record of 80 .9%, I believe is an all time high. Too much credit cannot be given the attendance, program and music com- mittees which made this possible. The adnunistration for 1951 is a particularly strong one and our whole club looks forward to a year of even greater activity, a year replete , . with fine work in all phase s of community endeavour and a year of mighty building in Kiwanis. Yours in Kiwanis, A. H. LiE\ff, President, 1950. December 31st, 1950. Page 1 IVlinutes of the "mnual Heeting held at the Chateau Laurier February 3, 1950 Fresent: B-S per Attendance Register.

  • St. Matthew's Restoration Project Recognized Written by Margret
    St. Matthew's Restoration Project Recognized Written by Margret Brady On a blustery evening in February, St. Matthew's Anglican Church received an Ottawa Architectural Conservation certificate of merit for restoration in a ceremony at City Hall. The church was in good company. Awards of excellence for restoration (2007/2008) were presented for work completed on the Governor General's residence as well as the Sparks Street Conservation District. Presented by Councillor Clive Doucet, the certificate for St. Matthew's restoration project recognized Robert Martin and James Maddigan of Robertson Martin Architects, architect Chris Borgal, Khaled Ibrahim of KIB Consultants Inc. and Jonathan Morin, Marc and Joshua Johnston of Atwill-Morin (Ontario) Inc. Most of them attended the ceremony introduced by Mayor Larry O'Brien. Architect Robert Martin was also recognized for his work on the restoration of Rideau Hall facade. Parishioners Beric Graham-Smith and Douglas Robar received the certificate on behalf of St. Matthew's. Former parishioner Bob Breiithaupt, who moved to Nova Scotia a couple of years ago, played a key role in the project as did Tom Martin, chair of the finance committee. "I'd just like to say what an agreeable project this was to work on," said Mr. Graham-Smith, who was involved in the three-phase project from its inception. "I would like to congratulate the architects and contractors and the co-operative way in which they worked on the project." Jonathan Morin, president of Atwill-Morin (Ontario) Inc., said he was thrilled by the recognition and the results of the project. St.

  • Building a Memory
    Building a Memory Reactivating a Lineage of Community Life at Centretown’s 330 Gilmour Street By Emily Jung Essex A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfllment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020 Emily Jung Essex Abstract Centretown, one of Ottawa’s oldest residential neighbourhoods, has continuously been evolving since its establishment in the late 18th century. The 21st century pressure for densifcation in this now urban mixed-use neighbourhood is increasing the need for community resources, while at the same time pushing them out. Centretown’s vacant and neglected 330 Gilmour Street, the former Ottawa Public School Board Administration Building, provides a place to establish the missing public space within the community. By adaptively reusing all three additions - 1922, 1956 & 1963 - along with new interventions in 2020, Centretown’s newly established ‘Meeting Place’ binds itself to its lineage of intangible social histories as an expression of community memory characterizing each volume into four places - A Place to Be, Gather, Create and Grow. The four places under one roof assist in providing a burgeoning future for community life in Centretown through representing the historic lineage of community memory at the Meeting Place. Thesis Question _ How can representing the lineage of community memory at 330 Gilmour Street provide means for reimagining the future of community life in Centretown? ii Key Words & Definitions Key Words _ Ottawa, Centretown, Interpretation, Adaptive Reuse Community, Social Infrastructure Defnitions _ Lineage _ A linear sequence of growth evolved from the predecessor.
