Scope and content:

The Project Records Series represents the bulk of the collection. The sub-series list the projects by the names and 4-digit job numbers assigned by Fickett, and are arranged in number order. The first two digits are for the year and the last two digits for the sequence of the project during that particular year. There are several projects with more than one number, meaning that additional work was done on those projects by Fickett, but usually are part of the same overall project. The remainder of the project titles are for those without assigned numbers and are arranged alphabetically.

Within the project titles, there are up to four files--Drawings, Photoraphs, Project Files, and Renderings. The Drawings are technical drawings that may include site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, electrical plans, and/or mechanical plans. The photographs include prints, negatives, and/or slides. The Project Files consist of correspondence, reports, drawings, building codes, specifications, etc. Lastly, the Renderings are artists' concepts of the proposed project, drawn mostly in color.

When dates of these items are given, they are included in the series, sub-series and files. When the dates are not given, then the dates used are usually based on the date of the individual project number or use the term "undated."
