Additional Details:
College Hall is the third home of the College of Arts and Sciences. The first was at Fourth and Arch Streets and the second at Ninth and Chestnut. Designed by Prof. Thomas W. Richards of the University faculty, College Hall's style is reminiscent of Italian Gothic. The building was inaugurated Oct. 11, 1872. Built of serpentine rock, it is the oldest building on the University of Pennsylvania campus.
