Changes Over Time: Ivey Hall 1955 - 2015

Ivey Hall, named after the first director William Ivey and built in 1878, has had few external changes over time.  It is seen here by comparison over a sixty year period from 1955 to 2015. However, the internal renovations are significant with it no longer serving as the Director's residence after the construction of the Principal's Lodge in 1945, nor as the main hall of residence after Hudson Hall was built in 1953. Since 1988 it has housed the university library, and it remains the focal point on campus with its distinctive and historical facade, though without the original chimneys or the ivy.
