Description
An account of the resource
Deerpath Hall before the 2001 renovation. The all red brick southwest facade can be seen. Two bike racks are visible and what appears to be a beach volleyball court.
Absent are the bushy deciduous shrubs that had softened the transition from the lawn to the crisp modern structure when it was built, in the mid 1950s.
Replacement windows with larger panes of darkened glass also heighten the contrast of the voids to the solid mass in a way that loses the original Naess & Murphy-designed elegant simplicity.

Deerpath Hall (1956 - 2000) - Exterior
Description
An account of the resource
This is a black and white photographic print of the Deerpath Hall lounge and front of the building (facing southeast). People can be seen in the window of the lounge. As built in he mid 1950s, Deerpath had a capacity 148, a Rec. Room, and a Lounge.
The Chicago architects Naess & Murphy created a modern structure in red brick that was planned not to upstage the 1892 all-red-then Durand Institute. Its success architecturally was in its self-effacing character, simple lines and secondary position to the already architecturally significant Durand Institute (Henry Ives Cobb).
Note also the sympathetic softening shrubbery around the Lounge wing, mitigating the otherwise abrupt character of the style.

Description
An account of the resource
Black and white photo of Deerpath Hall before the 2001 renovation with the photographer facing northeast. Students are gathered outside the front entrance. The Deerpath lounge is facing out towards the photographer with the main building containing students' rooms. Judging by the amount of leaves on the ground and the bare trees, this image seems to be taken during late fall, early winter.
The architects for this first new building on North or Middle Campus since the 1930s were Naess & Murphy, modernists who a few years earlier had designed 1350-1360 N. lake Shore Drive, Chicago, early International Style lakefront tall apartment buildings, breaking with historic style vocabularies. The building was all red brick and with no windows on the west side facing the corner of Deerpath and Sheridan Road, to avoid upstaging the all-red Durand Institute from the west.

North Hall (Administration Building, 1953 to present)
Subject
The topic of the resource
North Hall
Description
An account of the resource
This a ca. 1950s view of the entrance to North Hall, the south facade. Three students are present. This view shows the state of the 1897 renovation by of the first floor and entry by Frost & Granger, architects, with the squared brick pillars and Doric columns of the one-storey colonade for the central entrance. the hanging light fixture seen in the entry lobby is similar to ones in the Newberry Library, 1893; architect Charles S. Frost had worked with that Library's architect, Henry Ives Cobb, 1882-89.
Chicago architect Leon C. Welch in 1880 was paid for the design of the brick Academy building, a block north and of a similar Italianate style and scale, constructed in 1859 and expanded in 1865. That only twenty-year-old schoolhouse burned in 1879. This 1880 structure, largely a gift from Charles B. and Mary Smith Farwell, parents of Anna Farwell, College Class of 1880, and of Walter Academy student Farwell, is a nostalgic reprise of that beloved original 1859/1865 Lind/Lake Forest University building, with its two stairways. In style it recalls the old pre-1871 Chicago Fire City Hall, with its pedimented gable ends.
By 1892 this second Academy schoolhouse, that looked backward to the early days of the institution, was out of date for a modern preparatory school for boys, and the acting president the Rev. James G. K. McClure that year, a graduate of Albany (NY) Academy and Andover (MA) Academy in the 1860s, envisioned a new expanded school for boys on the eastern model, on a new campus a block south. In 1893 this new Academy opened on what now is South Campus.
North Hall was converted into a dormitory for Lake Forest College. In 1897, as a first step in developing the College campus by McClure, when he became president that year (1897-1901; still pastor of the Presbyterian Church nearby), closed the two stairway entrances and had a central lobby and entry door replace these; this was the first Frost & Granger architects project of many. In the late 1910s and early 1920s North Hall was also the home of a quasi-independent Lake Forest School of Music. By the 1940s the History Dept. offices were on the first floor.
In the early 1950s, after the now separately-goverened College had acquired the 1893 Academy campus (now South Campus), North Hall became the administration building. This function moved from Durand Institute, to be more central to the now three College campuses (based on findings of a Booz Allen study). Various offices have been housed here over the years, with the president's office over the 1897-created central entry. The vestibule was added in the 1960s, presumably by Perkins & Will the campus architects then, or by head of facilities architect Larry O'Donnell. In the 1980s the interior was renovated by the Women's Board of the college, guided by Charlotte Simmons.
Yet the old structure recalls the early days of the College and also post-Chicago-Fire simple architecture, though of fire-proof masonry. Some of the bricks were from clay dug on campus, though other colors on the sides and rear now are apparent. From ca. the 1890s to the 1970s these walls were covered in soot from coal-fired boilers nearby into the mid 20th C. and by ivy.
In 2011 the first floor holds the Business (east) and Register's (west) offices. On the second floor are the president's and Dean of Faculty offices and suites. The third and fourth floors house the Marketing and Communications, Alumni, and Development depts. (Based in part on the entry Elizabeth A. Birnbaum on North Hall in "Lake Forest College: A Guide to the Campus," 2007, pp. 34, with additions by Arthur H. Miller).

Description
An account of the resource
A bench sis shown after 1940 between the south wall of North Hall at the 1897 Frost & Granger entrance and a supporting pillar. Two girls are sitting on it and reading books. The quaint bench survived until recent years, a reminder of the building's earlier dormitory purpose, at various times for men and women.
Chicago architect Leon C. Welch in 1880 was paid for the design of the brick Academy building, a block north and of a similar Italianate style and scale, constructed in 1859 and expanded in 1865.

The third and fourth floors house the Marketing and Communications, Alumni, and Development depts. (Based in part on the entry Elizabeth A.

Description
An account of the resource
Black and white ca. 1920s reproduced photograph of the south-facing front of North Hall, with numerous trees. It was created for a view book for admissions recruitment purposes. This was used also in the 1978 "Forester" yearbook.
Chicago architect Leon C. Welch in 1880 was paid for the design of the brick Academy building, a block north and of a similar Italianate style and scale, constructed in 1859 and expanded in 1865. That only twenty-year-old schoolhouse burned in 1879. This 1880 structure, largely a gift from Charles B. and Mary Smith Farwell, parents of Anna Farwell, College Class of 1880, and of Walter Academy student Farwell, is a nostalgic reprise of that beloved original 1859/1865 Lind/Lake Forest University building, with its two stairways. In style it recalls the old pre-1871 Chicago Fire City Hall, with its pedimented gable ends.
By 1892 this second Academy schoolhouse, that looked backward to the early days of the institution, was out of date for a modern preparatory school for boys, and the acting president the Rev. James G. K. McClure that year, a graduate of Albany (NY) Academy and Andover (MA) Academy in the 1860s, envisioned a new expanded school for boys on the eastern model, on a new campus a block south. In 1893 this new Academy opened on what now is South Campus.
North Hall was converted into a dormitory for Lake Forest College. In 1897, as a first step in developing the College campus by McClure, when he became president that year (1897-1901; still pastor of the Presbyterian Church nearby), closed the two stairway entrances and had a central lobby and entry door replace these; this was the first Frost & Granger architects project of many. In the late 1910s and early 1920s North Hall was also the home of a quasi-independent Lake Forest School of Music. By the 1940s the History Dept. offices were on the first floor.
In the early 1950s, after the now separately-goverened College had acquired the 1893 Academy campus (now South Campus), North Hall became the administration building. This function moved from Durand Institute, to be more central to the now three College campuses (based on findings of a Booz Allen study). Various offices have been housed here over the years, with the president's office over the 1897-created central entry. The vestibule was added in the 1960s, presumably by Perkins & Will the campus architects then, or by head of facilities architect Larry O'Donnell. In the 1980s the interior was renovated by the Women's Board of the college, guided by Charlotte Simmons.
Yet the old structure recalls the early days of the College and also post-Chicago-Fire simple architecture, though of fire-proof masonry. Some of the bricks were from clay dug on campus, though other colors on the sides and rear now are apparent. From ca. the 1890s to the 1970s these walls were covered in soot from coal-fired boilers nearby into the mid 20th C. and by ivy.
In 2011 the first floor holds the Business (east) and Register's (west) offices. On the second floor are the president's and Dean of Faculty offices and suites. The third and fourth floors house the Marketing and Communications, Alumni, and Development depts. (Based in part on the entry Elizabeth A. Birnbaum on North Hall in "Lake Forest College: A Guide to the Campus," 2007, pp. 34, with additions by Arthur H. Miller).

A black and white photograph of North Hall taken from Col Young Hall (previously University, College Hall), southeast side of the building. Cars are parked next to the building.
