	Gilman Hall Gilman Hall is a building on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley. Room 307 was where Glenn T. Seaborg and his coworkers identified plutonium as a new element on February 23, 1941 and as such, is designated a National Historic Landmark. The building itself is designated a National Historic Chemical Landmark, recognizing the two Nobel Prizes in Chemistry that have resulted from research done in the building. History Gilman Hall was built from 1916 to 1917 to accommodate an expanded College of Chemistry under the leadership of Gilbert N. Lewis. Designed by John Galen Howard, the building provided research and teaching facilities for faculty and students specializing in physical, inorganic and nuclear chemistry. It was named for Daniel Coit Gilman, president of the University of California from 1872 to 1875. Room 307 In 1942, the Berkeley campus became quite involved in the war effort of World War II. The top floor, or "attic," of Gilman Hall was fenced off fo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Old Main And Chemistry Building The Old Main and Chemistry Building are two connected, historic, American buildings that were erected in 1867 and 1883 and are presently located on the campus of Widener University in Chester, Pennsylvania. Both buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Description The Old Main building is four-stories high with a stucco and Wissahickon schist stone exterior. It has a two-pitched roof with a central grand pediment and two minor flanking pediments. Atop the grand pediment is a unique "dome" structure and atop both minor pediments are matching cupola. The measurements of the building are 243 feet (east to west) by 65 feet (East end) and 55 feet (West end) with walls that are two-and-one-half feet thick. The discrepancy in the measurements is the result of renovations that were made to the structure in 1883 following a fire that destroyed the upper floors on the eastern end. The symmetry of the building was lost with the eastern addition of an audit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

	University Of Arkansas Chemistry Building The Chemistry Building at the University of Arkansas is a building on the University's campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992."Chemistry Building." University of ArkansasProfile.Retrieved May 2, 2010. History Although there was already a chemistry building on campus, by 1925 it had become too small. There were plans to build a new building by the Arkansas General Assembly in 1927, and it was scheduled to be built in 1931. However, the Great Depression delayed these plans. In January 1934, $1,165,000 was made available for the construction of both a new chemistry building and the Vol Walker Library. These funds came from the Public Works Administration, and not the Arkansas legislature. Opened in December 1935, the building housed the chemistry, zoology, geology, philosophy, and psychology departments. Eventually, the growing University forced all of these departments elsewhere except for chemistry. In 1992, th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
