Description

Location: Reid Street and the Fox River
Architects: Berners, Schober & Kilp
Cost: $880,000 building + $53,930 = $933,930

This commanding structure was completed in 1965. It is a six-story residence hall, originally planned for women students. Five stories of rooms accommodate 200 students. The first floor has a lobby, office, lounging space and a suite for the resident director. The basement, which opens onto the Fox River view on the north, serves as a seventh level, housing storerooms, utilities, study rooms, and commodious lounges.

The financing of this hall was arranged through a federal self-amortizing loan. The remainder of the total cost came from gifts to the College. On August 6, 1965, however, Victor McCormick pledged a naming gift of $500,000 toward this residence, and the building was named after his mother, Mary Minahan McCormick, a sister of Dr. John R. Minahan. The building was dedicated on October 2, 1965
