Birchdale surveys and plans

File contains a 1916 Canadian Government Railways and Halifax Ocean Terminal Railway plan showing a proposed bridge for Coburg Road and access to Birchdale; an undated property survey showing existing buildings, including the Birchdale Hotel, Acadia Cottage, a bathing house, boat house and the north and south wharfs; two plans of proposed jetties on the Birchdale property; a floor plan by architect R.A. Johnson showing an addition to "Birchdale," which indicates a large playroom; and a floor plan for "Birchdale Annex" showing eight bedrooms. The annex addition probably dates to ca. 1920, when Birchdale Hotel was purchased by Dalhousie to house students. The file also contains a 1925 blueprint plan of a survey of the Allison Property on the west side of Oxford Street, which was purchased by Dalhousie University to use as the president's residence.
