Neil Hall

Neil Hall

In 1926 Neil Hall was built. It consisted of 150 rooms on 4 floors and held up to 270 women. Many nursing students resided here in the 1940’s-1960’s. The building was torn down in 1997. It was located at 1634 Neil Avenue, the present site of CVS Pharmacy/Younkin Success Center.

The University leased Neil Hall from a private owner who gave the building its name. The University leased the building from the time of its construction until 1942 when they purchased the building.
