The Moore Farm - Integrated Project Dossier (2016)

The Moore Farm, which is situated at 670 Boulevard Alexandre-Tache, has a very old and rich history that dates back to the 1800s. It was first bought in 1824 by Philemon Wright, a prominent figure in the settlement of the Ottawa area. Starting at the time of the purchase, the property was initially used for agricultural purposes. It was then passed down from Philemon to his son, Ruggles, who then passed it on to his son who was also called Ruggles. In 1872, following the death of the last Wright owner, the property was sold to David Moore. Following this, the stable was built around 1910. In this timeframe, farm transferred hands a couple of times until it was bought by Virginia Parker Moore in 1951. At this point, the farm became an important equestrian farm in the region. In 1973, Virginia Parker Moore donated the farm to the National Capital Commission (NCC) in the hopes that the farm would be protected and could be enjoyed by the public for generations to come. For a couple of decades, the farm remained unused until the NCC decided to invest money into the site to restore and rehabilitate the buildings. The site was rehabilitated with the goal of creating an eco-education center where members of the community could actively farm the land. This is the Integrated Project Dossier compiled by a group of undergraduate students of the Architectural Conservation and Sustainability Program (Engineers and architects) at Carleton University for the CIVE3207 (ARCN4100) Historic Site Recording and Assessment course in 2016.位于670亚历山大-塔什大道（Boulevard Alexandre-Tache）的摩尔农场（Moore Farm）拥有极为悠久厚重的历史，其渊源可追溯至19世纪。1824年，该农场由渥太华地区拓殖进程中的知名人物菲勒蒙·赖特（Philemon Wright）首次购入。购得之初，该地产最初被用于农业生产。随后产权由菲勒蒙·赖特传至其子拉格尔斯，随后拉格尔斯又将其传给同名之子。1872年，最后一位赖特家族所有者离世后，该地产被售予大卫·摩尔（David Moore）。此后约1910年，场地内的马厩得以修建。在此期间，农场几经易手，直至1951年被弗吉尼亚·帕克·摩尔（Virginia Parker Moore）收购。自此，该农场成为该地区重要的马术农场。1973年，弗吉尼亚·帕克·摩尔将农场捐赠给国家首都委员会（National Capital Commission, NCC），以期农场能够得到保护，并供后世公众永续享用。此后数十年间，农场处于闲置状态，直至国家首都委员会投入资金对场地建筑进行修复与翻新。此次修复工作以打造生态教育中心为目标，旨在让社区成员能够积极参与土地耕作。本整合项目档案由卡尔顿大学（Carleton University）建筑保护与可持续性项目（Architectural Conservation and Sustainability Program，工程师与建筑师方向）的一组本科生，为修读2016年开设的CIVE3207（ARCN4100）历史场地记录与评估课程而编制。
