Some of the trees along the Axis date back to the construction of Earl Hall, but changes to the Hall along the Axis and the construction of the Living Learning Center has dramatically altered the space. One of the most interesting trees in the Axis is the Deodar cedar (the Sarah Findly memorial tree) across from Carson Hall, and is a remnant of the residential neighborhood that once existed here. The casual, rolling nature of the EMU east lawn adjacent to the Axis is a hallmark of the late Mid-Century Era of design.enCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-UShistoryarchitecturecampus heritage landscape planOther
