In 2017 as part of the sesquicentennial celebrations, I attended a Heritage Ottawa talk by Rick MacEwen, a principal at Watson MacEwan Teramura Architects. MacEwen spearheaded the Ottawa Architects 150 project. Yesterday I pulled out the poster prepared for the event and thought, ok let’s see what we have. And so today we start with A.J. Hazelgrove.
Albert James Hazelgrove (1884-1958) was born in London, England. He studied at the Architectural Association in London and subsequently apprenticed with different firms. In 1908 he emigrated to Canada. For a couple of years he lived in Montreal then he moved to Ottawa. Over the course of a 5-decade career, he worked with a combination of firms and architects including among others: Mills, Lithwick & Cameron.
