Bowie and Simerg have collaborated to produce a spectacular photo essay of the work in progress. When completed, the buildings and the Park will become architectural gems and cultural icons in Canada. The 40+ colour slides included in this presentation, begin in March 2010 as Bowie moves into a condominium across the project site, when the ground had not even been broken. How did the site look then, and how has it evolved since?

By providing this treasure trove of photographs, we hope that your heart and mind will beam to as much a degree as Jim’s does; for him, change is an inevitable process and he does not take it for granted. He is engrossed daily in what he is observing.

Just as each one of us is dedicated and committed to our own personal endeavours in life, the engineers, the architects and the site personnel are committed to seeing this project beautifully completed. The viewer, hopefully, will appreciate a sense of what happens at a dedicated construction site.

Included in the presentation are excerpts from speeches made by His Highness the Aga Khan and Prime Minister Stephen Harper at the Foundation ceremony, as well as excerpts from the Ismaili Imam’s LaFontaine-Baldwin lecture. These thoughts, as you will see, are directly connected with the project.

Please note that this presentation and other material published on Simerg.com is copyright, and we ask that you kindly respect the terms of copyright. You may, by all means, download the presentation for your personal use.

Enjoy the photo essay, and watch it for regular updates in the coming weeks and months.
