Renovation of the Engineering Peer Tutoring Services (EPTS) Space - Adams Building

The Frank Dawson Adams Building is a four-storey institutional building in the International Style that was designed by McDougall, Fleming and Smith, and completed in 1951. 

The building is a steel-framed concrete structure, with exterior cladding of grey Montreal limestone panels for the foundation and grey Queenston limestone panels for the exterior walls. The facades have no ornamentation and show a repetitive pattern of large rectangular bay windows, separated only by vertical elements representing the structure of the building.
