Architectural drawings relating primarily to residences and commercial and public buildings in Ottawa (architectural documents; Office of Werner E. Noffke (Canadian architect, 1878-1964); 1906-1962, inclusive; National Archives of Canada (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada); Noffke, W.E. 77803/7)

Note: This collection of 2241 drawings representing 200 projects by Ottawa architect Werner E. Noffke reflects not only the breadth of one man's work but also one city's architecture over a 60-year period. Residences, offices and commercial buildings, exhibition halls, and many churches appear in the collection, along with projects as diverse as buildings for foreign legations. A great deal of Noffke's work was done for the Government of Canada. While Noffke's early work was typical of Ottawa building of the time, his later designs show an appreciation of modern architectural modes and an eagerness to experiment with new styles. Noffke's job book, in which are listed the project number, names of clients, and prices, complements the drawings in this accession.
