Reconstruction of University Hall Begins

Despite exterior wall restoration in 1905, by 1939, the foundation of University Hall was crumbling. Architects Perry, Shaw, and Hepburn were retained to undertake the extensive renovation, installing a new steel and concrete foundation. They also oversaw the addition of new small-paned windows and chimneys to match those shown in the first published view of the campus from 1795.
