(University of Oregon, 2015-05) Campus Planning, Design & Construction, University of Oregon
This assessment identifies the historic features of Chapman Hall’s exterior (including
landscape elements) and interior spaces. Understanding the building’s historic
significance is the first step to evaluating and preserving its valuable architectural and
landscape features. This assessment is intended to be used as a resource when making
recommendations for treatment of Chapman Hall during any alterations or additions.
Please note that this assessment incorporates information from a prior preliminary
historic assessment from 2011. Information from the 2011 assessment has been included
and updated in this complete version, which is intended to replace the 2011 preliminary
assessment.
The assessed areas are shown on the Surveyed Areas and Ranking maps (pp. 3-11). Each
area with potential historic significance is assigned a ranking of primary, secondary, or
tertiary. This ranking is based on the level of historic significance (high, medium, or low)
and level of integrity, defined as the degree to which the key historic elements are evident
today (excellent, good, fair, or poor). Refer to Appendix A for a full description of the
ranking methodology.
