Building History

King Hall, constructed in 1966 at a cost of $1.26 million, was designed to accommodate the Department of Chemistry, which had outgrown its previous location in Willard Hall. The building features laboratories, demonstration rooms, classrooms and departmental offices. King Hall was connected to the Chemistry/Biochemistry Building, which opened in 1988. The building is named in honor of Professor Herbert H. King, who became the head of the Department of Chemistry in 1918.
