- Title
L'ARCHITECTURE RÉSIDENTIELLE DU VIEUX SHERBROOKE, 1870--1915 : L'EXEMPLE DES MAISONS MOREY ET JOHNSTON.
- Abstract
The premise of this article is to compare two residential buildings located in Sherbrooke's Old North (Vieux Nord), buildings that correspond to two phases in the development of this neighbourhood. Good examples of the influence of Anglo-Saxon and especially of American architectural trends on the architecture of the Eastern Townships, these two homes have distinct styles, spatial organization and building materials that reflect on their original owner's social status. Building upon a framework defined by Luc Noppen and Lucie K. Morisset, the author will seek to evaluate the heritage value of these two homes. This paper, based on original documents, also identifies Joseph Wilfrid Grégoire, an Eastern Townships architect renowned in the first half of the twentieth century, as the designer of one of the two homes under study.
