Title
George Heath MacDonald (Class of 1911) : The Story of One Graduate from McGill University's School of Architecture
Abstract
The author examines the influence of the McGill University education on architect George Heath MacDonald (1883-1961). The PEI-born MacDonald studied architecture based on the Beaux-Arts principles popular at the time at McGill from 1908 to 1911. Between 1911 and 1958 MacDonald was involved in more than 180 projects in Edmonton, Alberta, where he had moved to in 1904. The author explains that much of MacDonald's work reflects the education he received at McGill, modulated by the evolving trends in Canadian architecture during the years surrounding the two world wars.
