Sea Island, Richmond, B.C. [Vancouver airport buildings]

File consists of records which document planning the location of the Vancouver airport and the design of various buildings at the Sea Island site. The file appears to be made up of records documenting two different businesses for which the department was responsible: designing City buildings, and administering the building permit application process, as most of drawings are original design drawings and tracings from the Vancouver Building Department, who designed most of the earliest structures.

The drawings depict site plans and designs for various hangers and administration buildings. The design drawings are elevations, floor plans, sections and details for a large number of projects:
