Biographical history

James Philip Dumaresq was born in 1916 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He served in Holland and Germany with the Royal Artillery during World War II, and remained in the Army reserves afterwards. He attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, earning a Masters degree in Civil Engineering. He took over his family architecture firm, and worked for the City of Halifax - his designs included many city firehouses. He also designed the Sir Charles Tupper Medical Building, the Dental building, and Fenwick Tower for Dalhousie University. He was a partner in Commodore Industrial Estates, which was taken over by the City of Dartmouth in 1965 due to its success, and which would become the nucleus around which Burnside Industrial Park revolved. He retired in 1987, and was awarded an honourary Doctor of Engineering from Dalhousie University in 1995. He passed away in 2013.
