Southeastern corner of Jordan Hall
| Description: |
This photograph shows the southeastern corner of Jordan Hall. The October 1928 issue of The Alumnal Quarterly included an article titled Introducing a New Butler, which described the new building for people who were not able to visit it in person (p. 129). The article states You see it perhaps to best advantage as you swing from Hampton Drive into the boulevard skirting the east side of the campus-a panoramic view of a long, low-lying structure of rose-gray granite set against a background of green foliage now touched by autumnal gold and brown. You are looking across the back yard of the Arthur Jordan Memorial Building, but that is of no moment. Its beauty knows no back or front. Viewed from whatever angle, it gives the same senses of satisfaction to aesthetic craving (p. 129). |
