ABSTRACT
An Architect Discovered: The Work of A.F. Dunlop
Stephen Robinson
1992
A.F. Dunlop was a prominent and respected architect in
Montreal during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. By the end of his
career, Dunlop had completed at least 55 separate building design projects that were
almost all in the vicinity of Montreal. While nearly half of these designs were
residential, he also carried out a variety of large-scale commercial projects. A prominent
figure among the leading architects of his time in Montreal, Dunlop became an authority in
architectural design and training. He developed a strong voice as a participant in the
administration of the architectural organizations that existed in Canada at that time.
This study is the first major presentation and examination
of the architectural career of A.F. Dunlop. The objective has been first, to prepare a
comprehensive and illustrated building list of Dunlop's designs and second, to augment
this work, when possible, with the available background and biographical information in
order to provide a better understanding of the architect's contribution to Montreal's
building history.
