Maxwell Kalman

[edit]
  • ... that Montreal architect Maxwell M. Kalman designed more than 1,100 buildings, including Canada's first shopping centre? Source: "A Mac Kalman building rarely gave off the kind of avant-garde feel that would make the covers of architectural magazines. The more than 1,100 mostly workaday projects he oversaw could, however, chart the post-war development of Montreal commercial and real estate properties. ... By way of some good postwar timing, Mr. Kalman happened to design the first shopping centre in Canada ... Norgate Shopping Centre opened in 1949" (The Globe and Mail)
