Looking northeast across Norris Plaza
| Description: |
This view from the roof of Jordan Hall looks northeast across Norris Plaza. Donated by Fern E. Norris in memory of her son Dr. Max S. Norris, former chairman of Butler Universitys Board of Trustees, construction on the plaza began in May 1995. Mrs. Norris wanted to create a memorial for her son, but she also wanted to create a space where students could gather. Designed by landscape architect Ron Howe, the low walls are designed for sitting and the four and half foot tall lighted fountain has two waterfalls. The plaza was officially dedicated on Sunday, September 24, 1995. The buildings in the background of the photograph are Lilly Hall and Clowes Memorial Hall, while portions of Hinkle Fieldhouse can be seen in the background. |
