dc.description.abstract | Built in 1918, Hendricks Hall was named after T.G. Hendricks, a local grocer who donated money for the construction of Deady Hall. Hendricks was built out of brick with a common bond and is notable for its wooden shingled gambrel roofs with parapets and dormers. The windows are of wooden frame and are multi-pane double hung. Hendricks is a well-decorated building on campus. It has wooden cornices, porch, and pediments. The irregular “L” shape of the building is due to it originally being a women’s dormitory. The building was sectioned off into three sections of three levels. It can be best described as three “houses” in one structure. Sixteen women lived on each floor. The residing women would share bath facilities and living spaces. Each “house” had a separate entrance to the building, thus explaining the multiple entry points seen on Hendricks Hall. The original main entrance is the west door facing the Women’s Memorial Quad, not the east door facing University Street which is most commonly used today. This was the housing prototype developed by Lawrence and was copied at Whitman College but that was the last that it was seen. Ellis Lawrence designed the Women’s Memorial Quad with the intent of using Gerlinger, Hendricks, and Susan Campbell Halls as verticies. Additional buildings were intended but never realized. | en_US |
