VINTAGE

PHOTOGRAPH

ALBUM FROM 1916 ERA

THIS PHOTO 1916

EAST LANSING, MICHIGAN


AI INFO BELOW:

NOT SURE IF CORRECT?


This photograph shows a close-up view of the East door of Abbott Hall on the East Lansing campus of Michigan Agricultural College (now Michigan State University). The handwritten caption at the bottom reads: "East door of Abbott Hall. (Building cracked and not used very much. Looks old and worn inside)." This description aligns with the latter half of the building's lifespan before it was eventually demolished in 1968. The image clearly captures the distinct brickwork, tall arched entrance doorway, and double-hung multi-pane windows characteristic of late 19th-century campus architecture.
