Thomas Associates, Inc., historic preservation consultants, in 1998-9. The purpose of the survey was to provide the College with a planning tool and a central repository of basic infOimation on its architectural and historic campus resources. The survey combines three principal types of infOllllatioil, organized in individual fOIlIlS. The first of these types ofinfolillation is a compilation of historic data gathered from a number ofCoJlege sources, including the archives located in the Quaker Collection and the inventory of drawings provided by Physical Plant. Second, a descriptive section and photographs taken with a large fOlillat (4" x 5"), perspective-correcting camera provide a baseline record and identification. Third, an assessment of the historic importance of each resource is ranked according to a tiered system. Organization • The organization of the survey follows the Physical Plant facilities inventory by function and is divided alphabetically into the following groups: Academic, Administrative, Athletic, DOIlllitory, and Faculty Housing. Within the function groups, groups of inventory fOlIllS (usually a maximum offour) are followed by groups of the photographs that accompany them in archival sleeves. The original negatives for the photographs were placed on deposit with the Quaker Collection, and were organized in the same order as the survey fOllns. Criteria for Assessment In evaluating the campus's built resources, three issues were paramount - the merit and significance of the individual buildings, structures, and landscapes, and the place of those buildings in the history of the institution. The goal in this assessment is to assure that the institution can grow and adapt as its needs change. Broad, culturally-based criteria of significance were used to assess importance. The team followed the lead of the National Register of Historic Places and state and local ordinances in assuming that history, design, and cultural patterns represent national, regional, and local levels of significance that may warrant preservation. The National Register and the preservation field accept both single monuments and distinctive and mutually-enhancing clusters or historic districts. The inventory fOIlIls allude to these clusters, which are also identified below . ) ~' -, . . ' 2 Scope The review was based on two sources. First, the Physical Plant inventory of College facilities, and second, an on-site survey of the campus. While the primary focus is on the central campus as the core developed zone of the institution; buildings (mainly the Haverford College Apartments and faculty houses) that are outside of the central, historic campus purchased after construction by Haverford are also included. Significance Analysis and Evaluation ) The buildings, structures, and landscape zones of the campus were analyzed and ranked according to their design and historical significance, their integrity, and their role in shaping the character of the campus. Several models for ranking significance exist within the national preservation field. Because such rankings imply that some buildings are more worthy of preservation than others, such invidious comparison has generally been avoided in American preservation. The National Register, for example, lists individual buildings, structures, and objects on the basis of national, regional, and local significance without distinction in status, save for a tiny minority that are singled out as National Historic Landmarks. If the campus facilities were evaluated on an equivalent basis, one might single out Founders' Hall and Barclay Hall as College Landmarks, but a lack of further distinctions would seem to imply that the rest of the resources of the campus are ofrougbly equal merit. This is clearly not the case. Other subdivisions of historic significance have been used in other situations in the preservation field. National Register Historic Districts are divided between buildings that "Contribute" to the district, in that they correspond to the defined character, age, scale and purpose; other structures that are less than fifty years of age, or manifestly different from the purpose of the district, or grossly altered so that the historic character had been lost, are deemed "Non-contributing." For a period of time, district designation also included a third category of buildings especially notable within the district. These were listed as "Significant." Such a system pellnits some additional subtlety. The purpose of this survey, however, is not to evaluate the Haverford College campus resources for potential National Register or Landmark eligibility. In this state, this task is the sole province of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (the Pennsylvania State Historic Preservation Office). Instead, our purpose is to aid the College in understanding its history as a guide to its planning. Therefore, we developed an independent system in evaluating the campus's resources that reflects the general intent of existing practice, but can be used with greater discrimination. Ranking System .). • • • • • Those buildings, structures or landscapes that are most important to the history of the institution are listed as Distinguished 1. Those in the next group, listed as Distinguished 2, are crucial in the history of the College and are typically by designers of regional and/or institutional importance. Those designated Distinguished 3 contribute substantially to the historic character of the campus. Those 3 .' -. - ,• facilities listed as Contextual I contribute to the historic character of the campus as an ensemble and possess some individual distinction. Finally, those that contribute to the character of the campus but lack particular individual distinction are listed as Contextual 2. Buildings or structures that are not of substantial historic importance are listed as Unrated. Most of these have been built within the last fifty years; some have been so compromised by alteration that their historic integrity has been lost. Because of the vagaries of architectural fashion and the obvious lack of the passage of time, the historic preservation field concurs that it is inappropriate (except in highly unusual circumstances) to consider a building, structure, or landscape as historically important before it reaches the fifty year mark. It should be noted, however, that at the time of this survey, quite a few of the College's buildings !U'e nearing a half-century in age. These structures should be evaluated for historic significance as they reach that crucial point as the most effective planning strategy for the school. Historic landscapes on campus have been ranked using an additional system appropriate for the different character of these places. In addition to the rankings described above, two categories have been applied. First, Contextual I.andscape has been used for those areas that are of some historic character and hold a place in the history ofthe institution (Walton Field, for example), but which do not have the same historic importance as those structures classified as Contextual 2. Those areas categorized as Open Space are a contributing resource of the campus but with little historic importance. - ' -- .- ) _. Historic Clusters or Zones • • The campus has a number of distinct, historic zones or ensembles that are equivalent to historic subdistricts within the greater historic district of the campus. These should be taken into consideration in planning for future development, in addition to taking into account the significance of individual structures. While not an absolutely definitive list, these places, or historic zones, include the following: -The College Lane (1-9) Faculty Houses Group -The College Circle (1-5) Faculty Houses Group 739,747,753, 754, 757, 773, 791 -The College Avenue Faculty Houses Group: -Founders' Hall Quadrangle Group: Founders', Barclay, Magill Library, Hall Building, Ryan, Hilles, Sharpless Lloyd, Union, Roberts --Lloyd Hall Quadrangle Group: • 4 - · • • Haverford College Facilities.

The interior running track is rubberized. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance As early as 1925, an athletic building for indoor exercise was proposed by the Board of Mangers. By 1953, a new fieldhouse had been identified as an essential component of a capital campaign for a building program undertaken by the Board, along with a new dormitory (Leeds). These two buildings expanded the campus to the south and west. The original scheme for the building by George Ewing, who designed Leeds, was for a much more substantial structure with clerestory lighting. Reservations on the part of Board member Stanley Yarnall, who did not “wish to see the Field House as a training arena for exhibitions,” and the move to erect a shell prior to full funding led to the construction of the present building. Plans were drawn by Carroll, Grisdale and Van Alen in 1955, and the project was nearing completion in spring of 1957. There were problems with roof leaks immediately.

National Historic Landmark Construction Materials roof hexagonal, polychrome slate mansard trim walls windows 2-over-2 modern replacement base granite foundation structure Other features brick chimneys with decorative tops Historic Name Barclay Hall Origin of Name Named for Robert Barclay (1648-1690), author of An Apology for the true Christian divinity... (London, 1678), a crucially important early codification of Friends’ belief. Builder Yarnall and Cooper Description Barclay is composed of a long, rectangular block articulated in a rhythm of two end pavilions connected by hyphens to a central block. The style is a hybrid of Second Empire and Collegiate Gothic in the manner of the then recently completed main building of the West Philadelphia campus of the University of Pennsylvania by Thomas Webb Richards. The two lower floors, separated by a water table, are surmounted by a mansard roof with projecting dormers except in the central pavilion which rises to an additional floor. The building was sited to form the east side of a quad with Founders’ Hall. Originally a central tower surmounted the central pavilion. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance Barclay is the only major building on campus by Hutton, and the result of incoming College president Thomas Chase’s move to greatly expand the institution to compete with recently revitalized and expanded University of Pennsylvania, which had moved to its West Philadelphia location at the beginning of the decade. Chase’s greater vision for the school was signaled by his recommendation to change its name from the Haverford School Association to “The Corporation of Haverford College.” Barclay was the direct result of this expansion in order to accomodate a larger number of students and to provide better classroom facilities. In contrast to what had by then become old-fashioned facilities of Founders’ Hall, Barclay was planned from the beginning to have central steam heat and private studies for the students. Rufus Jones recalled it as “lordly” in scope and noted that the architect was “highly praised for the simple and appropriate beauty of the structure.” The central tower was demolished after being damaged in one of the two fires that damaged the building. In fact, of all the campus buildings, Barclay seems to have been particularly prone to fire - with damage done on the third floor in 1923 and extensive damage in 1946.

The Cadbury House portion of the building serves as a student dormitory; the 8 College Lane portion of the house is faculty housing. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance This is one of the group of faculty houses that were built on the “Warner Tract,” as part of the important period of expansion put into motion by President Isaac Sharpless. It may have been one of five houses for which faculty petitioned to build in 1890. It was probably designed by the same architect as number 5 College Lane, which was built for Professor R. Rendel Harris in 1889, although the designer remains unidentified. Fortunately, like the Harris house, this house retains much of its rich period detail.

Builder Description A masonry wall with a central, round arch and a central, round-arch opening. Significant Interior Features N/A Significant Landscape Features The Mary Newlin Smith-Ruth Magill Memorial Gardens - with plantings, a slate courtyard, and cast concrete benches - sit adjacent to the arch. The garden was relocated and rededicated by the Campus Arboretum Association, October 28, 1984. History and Significance The arch originally served as one of probably two masonry end walls built as part of a large green house petitioned for by the Loganian Society in 1838 (a smaller greenhouse had existed in the vicinity since 1834). The rear (north) wall was probably masonry as well, and provided heat to the structure through a flue system. Much was made of the moral and educational benefit of plant study at the time of the Greenhouse’s construction. This, and the construction of the observatory, were early manifestations of the interrest (linked to Friends’ beliefs) in the natural sciences which would inform a crucial part of Haverford’s curriculum. The Greenhouse’s construction was linked to the employment of professional gardener and Englishman William Carvill, who advised on the project and was hired at the end of 1838. Carvill was also important as the designer of many features of the early campus. After Carvill’s departure in 1844 and after the re-opening of the College in 1848 after the suspension of activities, interest in the Greenhouse dwindled. In 1851, the Board of Managers decided to cease maintaining it and to sell whatever plants were in it. In March of 1855 the glass ranges were destroyed by fire in the heating flue system. The arch was dedicated in 1934.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance Chase was built as a humanities classroom building, particularly to remedy the deficiencies felt in teaching space for the natural sciences. Plans were presented to the Board of Mangers in the spring of 1887, and the commission was announced in a trade newspaper the following spring. It was proposed to name the building after recently resigned President Chase in September 1888. This was one of the first commissions of the architectural firm, one of the most important in the region at the end of the nineteenth century, and was concurrent with the design of 2 College Lane, also by Cope & Stewardson. Walter Cope was not an alumnus but had many family connections to the school. Major alterations were made in 1915, 1945 and 1984.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance This house marks the beginning of a campaign of construction of faculty residences on campus concentrated between 1882 and World War I. Isaac Sharpless, then a professor of Mathematics (later Dean and then President of the College), petitioned the Board of Managers for permission to build a house at his own expense in 1882 at the “southwest corner of the grove on the college grounds.” The architect for this project is not known, although it is conceivable that it is the design of Addison Hutton, who was consulted in this period about alterations to the gymnasium in what is now the Gest Center. The rear of the house was enlarged by adding upper floors for guest rooms in 1908-9 during Sharpless’s presidency.

Gummere petitioned to build a house the same year he came to the College, 1887. His proposal for a house and its site were approved by the Board of Managers in 1889. The house was renovated in 1940, which is probably when the southern end of the front porch was enclosed by stone and a window bay was added on the second floor above. This house may have been designed by Harrison Albright, who announced a construction of a single house at Haverford College in May, 1888. This is currently the college president’s house.

The adjacent clapboard garage/shed fronting on Coursey Road has a gabled roof covered with asphalt paper. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance This house was built as the tenant farmer’s house in a period when the College sought to begin to reduce the farming operations at the school and to use the earlier farm houses (Woodside Cottage and 1 Featherbed Lane) for faculty and visitor accomodation. Rather than a home for an important resident, it was constructed as minimal housing for a “hired man” farmer who would be under the supervision of the administration. The house was repaired extensively renovated in 1886 and in 1911. Bibliography; sources Board of Managers’ Meeting Minutes 5/4/1860, 12/21/1860, 3/1/1861; 3/5/1886, 3/27/1886, 1/20/1911, 3/17/1911.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance This house was built in 1889 for a prominent member of the faculty, who had been recruited as part of president Isaac Sharpless’s plan to expand the school. Harris had been born and educated in England and taught Biblical Languages and Ecclesiastical History. In March of 1889, the Board of Managers first recorded the need to provide him with a house, and plans for the building by an unknown architect were approved in June of 1889. He moved in in the fall. The house retains most of its original character and decorative exterior detail, which should be thoughtfully preserved, although the decorative pinnacle at the entrance gable has been lost.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The Committee on Property of the Board of Managers approved the “erection of a Stone Building suitable for the accomodation of the family of a Teacher” in July, 1858. The house was reported under construction by the builders Yarnall & Cooper, who would later build Barclay Hall from the designs of Addison Hutton. The porch, which extends across the north front only, originally extended around the western end of the northern volume as well. The first occupant was Timothy Nicholson, who served both as teacher and as Superintendent. For a long period the house was the home of Pliny Earle Chase, professor and brother of President Thomas Chase. The large rear addition was put on the back of the house in 1880.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The Board of Managers sought the cooperation of “persons residing in the vicinity of the school” to open a road “along the south side of the farm, connecting the Lancaster Turnpike & Haverford Road” in October 1833. The road was not opened until 1836, however, after permission had been obtained from landowner Isaac S. Lloyd Plans in the Quaker collection indicate that College Lane was one of the many allees of trees created according to William Carvill’s plan. In 1879, the road was raised on a dam at the outlet of the skating (duck) pond and a dry wall was built on the south side of the road.

The designer is unknown, but the house could have been the work of Baily & Truscott, who had designed #5 College Circle two years previously. In 1961, the house was renovated to become the home of the Music department and received its current name. The house was converted in 1974 to dormitory use to meet a housing shortage.

It is surrounded by a split timber fence with wire mesh covering the space between the bottom rail and the ground. A slate and fieldstone border and walls border the pond. Three birdhouses form a line in the middle of the pond. Trees border the pond. Significant Interior Features N/A Significant Landscape Features History and Significance It is likely that the Duck Pond was the original bathing pond excavated for the use of the students in 1835, and was used through the nineteenth century as a skating pond. It was probably never very large, and by the early twentieth century it had silted in to the point where its existence was seasonal, and the area became pasture in the summer. In 1930, plans were begun to make a year-round pond in time for the school’s Centennial in 1933. Extensive excavation created the present configuration.

A raised ½-basement story is accessible via a trench that runs around the perimeter of the building. The central block and end wings have gabled roofs, and an octagonal cupola caps the center of the central block. A long wood front porch runs along the front of the central block between the two wings, and small wood porches (entryways with limestone stairs and wood benches) are located at the back and ends of the building. All four porches have standing seam metal roofs and are raised on red brick bases. Significant Interior Features A double staircase in the central hall. All original detail in Founders’ should be carefully considered. Significant Landscape Features History and Significance Founders’ was the original building of the college, and was simply refered to as the “school building.” It was the only classroom building until the construction of the annex (now the Gest Center) and only dormitory until Barclay was built in 1875-7. The original building was largely planned by the Board of Managers, although Philadelphia carpenter and sometime architect George Seneff provided drawings from which the builders, Esrey and Attmore, worked. Attmore lived on site and supervised the construction. By the end of 1831, the Board had determined the site for the building, and by September 1832, the exterior walls had been completed and the structure was closed in late in the fall for the winter, although some work continued. When the school first opened in October of 1833 the building was not yet finished, and the carpenters’ finish work was not wholly done until the following summer. Interior changes were multiple in the nineteenth century as the school grew and developed. Among the most momentous for the inhabitants were the introduction of utilities, including the installation of a tank to create and pressurize a central water system in 1837, the construction of the first furnace in 1843, and the introduction of gas lighting in 1852. Problems with rising damp were addressed by excavation around the building in 1860, creating the grade that exists today. Even with the construction of later buildings, Founders’ continued to play an important role in the school, and, with the large addition by Morris & Vaux in 1904-6, remained the main dining facility for the college until the construction of the Dining Center.

The building’s materials mirror those of adjacent Founder’s Hall, and it is connected to the northern extension of Founder’s Hall via a stuccoed bridge from the 2 central registers of the second story (a later alteration/addition). On the eastern side of the building, the first story window mouldings of two northernmost registers are irregularly angled (with the slope of the hill), and they contrast with the right angles of the window sashes and the windows themselves. There are lamps attached to the building’s exterior walls. Significant Interior Features centerline of the building. On the ground floor, several wood supporting posts remain along the lengthwise Significant Landscape Features History and Significance What is now the Gest Center was the first addition to Founders’ Hall. The construction of a “playhouse” in frame was contemplated in 1850, and an agreement with a builder was made for a stone building for exercise “during the inclement season” in September. Two years later, the students had raised $300 for equipment and William Eyre, who was building the Observatory, put in a new floor. The building was “extended and elevated” in 1853 for a laundry on the first floor, and, on the second floor, the College’s first laboratory and a lecture hall were placed. $1,500 was suggested as an appropriate price for equipment. In 1878, extensive renovations were made to the laboratory and lecture room on the second floor, including a new ventilation shaft, and reinforcement to the floor. Addison Hutton consulted on extensive alterations to the first floor gymnasium in 1881. After the construction of the Hall building in 1910, money was raised for adaptation of the laboratory spaces in 1911. Thanks to a bequest by Margaret Gest, the annex was adapted as the Gest Center for Cross-Cultural Study of Religion, opened in 1977, although adaptations had been begun in 1970 from designs by Cope & Lippincott.

The building follows the downward slope of the hill (west to east), alternating between hipped and gabled roof lines. Heavy granite window sills and roof brackets and wood mouldings below the eaves are its main ornamental features. Stairs and window wells are of reinforced concrete. Straight horizontal courses of fieldstone delineate each story within the rubble pattern of fieldstone wall facing. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance Vincent Kling became “consulting architect” for the college in 1959 as part of the effort to expand and modernize the school in the period. Early in 1960, he submitted plans for new dormitories for 74 students, and by September 1962 the final site had been selected. At this point it was proposed to end Walton Road at the new building rather than altering the roadbed to go around the building, as was done. Kling was authorized to proceed with a full set of plans and obtain estimates, and presented his developed scheme in May 1963. One suspects that he was urged to add details that would harmonize with the rest of the campus, like the stone trim and slightly pitched roofs; these were at odds with his tendency to follow International Modern trends.

Hall Builder F.L. Hoover & Sons Description A two-story, Colonial Revival building with the basement exposed on three sides, a rectangular plan with offices and classrooms flanking a central hallway. A rectangular addition containing fire stairs and an elevator sits at the midpoint of the rear elevation. The building’s hipped roof has four ornamental brick chimneys situated near the four corners of the building. The symmetrical front elevation fronts on Founder’s Hall green and has a projecting pediment with a circular window at its center. The central door is framed by Tuscan columns supporting an overhanging entablature, above which a large arched window lights the central stair inside the door. Ornamental wrought iron handrails flank the front stairs. Rectangular windows are found on the sides of the front elevation, as well as throughout the rest of the building; they have wood sills and limestone lintels with a stepped keystone motif. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The construction of the Hall building was first announced in the January, 1910 Board of Managers’ Minutes. It was the first purpose-built Chemistry building for the campus, and was an enormous leap beyond the facilities in the Founders’ Hall Annex. The building was opened in October, 1911. Interior renovations have taken place in 1964 and 1967 from designs by Louis T. Klauder and Associates and in 1997 under the direction of Kieran, Timberlake and Harris. The Hall building was one of a group designed by alumnus William Lloyd Baily (Class of 1883), including the nearly contemporary Morris Infirmary. Bibliography; sources Construction drawings, H.C.

Shed dormers sit atop the gabled roof, and three schist chimneys are located at the south end (1) and the northern half (2) of the building. Wood shutters frame some of the first floor windows, and clapboard siding is used where the building’s plan dog-legs. Three entrances paved in slate are along the east side: a timber post porch with a shed roof and built-in wood bench at the south end; another door under a pent eave near the center of the building, with an adjacent bench; and a hipped roof porch supported on Tuscan columns with a built-in bench near the north end of the building. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The construction of Leeds was part of a post-war building and capital campaign initiated in 1952, the year of Leeds’s death, by College President Gilbert White. By June of that year, a dormitory for 72 students had been planned, and three months later, George Ewing was announced as the architect in the Board of Managers’ Meeting minutes. Landscape architect Fred Peck was associated with the project. Ewing was officially hired and plans were prepared in 1954. Construction was complete by the fall of 1955. The design is unusual for its era in its successful gestures toward the historic details of the earlier campus buildings, and although less than fifty years old, is one of the best post-Word War II buildings on campus.

Dougherty Description A 2 ½-story Colonial Revival building with a long L-shaped plan and a gabled roof with broad brick chimneys along the length of each wing (of the L). Four entrance porches line the interior (east and south) sides of each wing, with another entrance at the corner where the two wings meet. These porches have gabled roofs supported by Tuscan columns with built-in wood benches. At the corner where the two wings meet, the roof is one story lower than the rest of the building. Four shed dormers with hipped roofs are evenly spaced along the outside (of the L) of each wing. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features Schist walls extend from the southeast corner of the east wing and the southwest corner of the south wing of the building as part of the gates (respectively) which enclose this area to create a quadrangle (see separate form). History and Significance Lloyd was built in successive phases, beginning with the Logan and Norris sections (named for James Logan and Isaac Norris, arguably the most powerful Pennsylvania Quakers of the early eighteenth century). This original section was by one of the most important firms in the region at the end of the nineteenth century, and followed their designs for 2 College Lane and Chase Hall. The architects both had extensive family connections to the school but were not alumni. The creation of the original sections coincided with their work on the dormitories of the University of Pennsylvania, and shares with them the lessons on undergraduate living on the Oxbridge model that John Stewardson learned in England. The subsequent sections of the building were designed by the successor firm, Stewardson & Page, after the premature death of the principals early in the twentieth century, and are in perfect keeping with the original portion.

With a donation by John Magill in 1972, planning began in earnest for the Locker Building, and ground was broken the following year, with completion in 1974. The Trophy Gallery was part of the next phase, which included the construction of the Squash Courts and renovations to the Ryan Gym in 1985 by Geddes, Brecher, Qualls and Cunningham.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The construction of the “Northern Dormitories” (Comfort, Jones, and Lunt) was part of the campus plan prepared by the same architects, whose original connection to the school may have been through one of the principals, William Hough, who was a member of the Society of Friends. The firm was one of the most prominent in the Philadelphia area in the period. Plans for the buildings, presented by principal Roy Larson, were approved July, 1966. Design was completed the following year. A fourth domitory was considered, but not built. Bibliography; sources Drawings - H.C.

Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The Magill Library started life as the Alumni Hall, built to provide meeting space for the Alumni Association and accommodation for the College’s library. In 1863, a large donation by Thomas Kimber made the project move forward. The building was nearly doubled in size in 1898 by the south wing added by Bailey & Truscott. With the construction of Roberts the building was given over completely to library use in 1903. It has had numerous additions and renovations to accommodate the growing collection and different functions within the building, culminating in the large addition to the south and a new entrance configuration and the present name.

The gabled roof has shingles and a half-circle window in the gable ends, gabled dormers, and three brick chimneys (two with ornamental brickwork on the west side, one on the east side). A wood porch with thin Tuscan columns and a copper roof wraps around the northwest corner of the house; and the second story overhangs the porch, making the porch space deeper. The two-car garage fronting on Railroad Avenue has horizontal wood siding, a gabled roof with a pent eave in front and a small rectangular window in the front gable end. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance At its core, this house is the cottage built in 1836 for the use of the College gardener, and is thus one of the earliest campus buildings despite the fact that it has been subsumed by later additions. It was built by the same builders who completed Founders’ Hall. The original house was described in the Board of Mangers’ Meeting Minutes as a two-story stone house, 32' x 16', with “octagons” (i.e. three-sided bays) at each end, with a standing-seam metal roof. It probably also originally had a porch on the south (campus) side. The house was completed in early 1837. It was presumably first occupied by William Carvill, the professional gardener hired at the end of 1838. Additionally, the Southwestern Semicircular Room and the Piazza were utilized by associates of the school as shelter while waiting to depart on railroad cars or having just arrived on them. In 1853, in a period of expansion after the school closing, the house was renovated by raising the end bays to two stories for the use of the “new” Mathematics teacher, Joseph G. Harlan, the first principal of the school after its change of status to a college in 1856. Late nineteenth-century photographs attest to a campaign of major alteration and additions around 1881, when Professor Ellis Yarnall, who occupied the house, petitioned to build a new stable for the house. Further additions and interior renovations were accomplished under the direction of Cope and Stewardson in 1901. The garage is the stable built for Professor Ellis Yarnall, who petitioned the Board of Managers for permission. It is conceivable that Addison Hutton was the architect, since he was advising on modifications to the gymnasium at the time.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features Hall/Ryan Plaza by Wallace, Roberts & Todd, 1995. History and Significance The Alumni Association first proposed to build a gymnasium to replace the undoubtedly cramped facilities on the lower floor of what is now the Gest Center (Founders’ Hall Annex) in 1889. By 1899, the architects had been chosen and drawings had been completed by February of 1900. Landscape architect Samuel Parsons Jr. and architect Walter Cope were consulted on siting and Ryan was the first building to establish the fourth side of the quadrangle of Founders’ Green completed by the Hall Building, Hilles and Sharpless. Construction took place in 1900 and the building opened in 1901.

Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The Ryan Pinetum was part of R. J. Johnston and the Campus Club’s plan to establish an arboretum at the College in the mid-1920s. In 1926 a 50-acre tract at the southwestern edge of the campus was selected for a collection of trees in generic and family groupings. The arboretum is an aspect of the Quaker traditional interest in the natural sciences that in the nineteenth century caused both the greenhouse (the Carvill Arch) and the Observatory to be lavished with an enormous amount of attention and funds. The fundamental emphasis on the natural sciences has continued to be a core element of the school’s curriculum into the late twentieth century. The arboretum links the College to many other Quaker institutions, including Westtown School and Swarthmore College, and to what is now the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania. This last was the legacy and personal estate of John T. Morris, Haverford alumnus, donor, and board member, who donated trees to the Haverford Campus in addition to the Morris Infirmary. The Pinetum was named for Dick and Nancy Ryan in 1993. Bibliography; sources The Spirit and the Intellect, p. 44. Alterations and Additions Date Architect Builder Description Prepared by: E.

Three story high building with basement accessible at rear, downhill side. Since added to on south, downhill side. Significant Interior Features History and Significance This building was part of Haverford’s leap into the scientific training of the early twentieth century, and marks the increasing division of both scientific enquiry and teaching, as well as the ongoing expansion of the school that Sharpless contributed to significantly. Sharpless was built to house the Physics and Biology departments. The cornerstone for the building was laid in October of 1917, and it is one of a group designed by alumnus William Lloyd Baily (class of 1883), including three houses on College Avenue in the same period (739, 747, and 753). The building plays a major role as part of Founders’ Green and is an important scale-giving building at principal entrance to campus. Renovation to Sharpless and Hilles Halls were conducted in 1983 by Geddes, Brecher, Qualls, and Cunningham and a major addition was built on the rear (south) side in 1991-2 designed by the Hillier Group.

A skating pavilion was first proposed as a part of the changes to the pond undertaken for the College’s Centennial in 1933, but it was considered too expensive at the time. There was a frame skating house (undoubtedly modest in character) on the other side of the pond prior to the 1930s renovations.

Strawbridge (Class of 1894). Builder William Eyre Description A 1-story observatory building with circular viewing domes. The original rectangular building is on the north side, with its dome situated above the original central arched entrance. The later addition forms a T-shaped plan with the older building. The later dome is located above the current main entrance, at the south end of the east side of the building. Below this southern dome, the building forms an attached octagonal tower. Iron and copper lamps are hung over both doors. Significant Interior Features Significant Landscape Features History and Significance The construction of an observatory for the College was seen as a key element of the science program from its beginnings. The first observatory was a frame building built in 1838. This was replaced in 1852, by what was intended to be a state-of-the-art science facility in which a great deal of investment was made. The details of the building were described at great length in the Board of Managers’ Minutes of 1/6/1854, after its completion. The purchase of the telescope was financed by subscription, and was insured for a greater amount than the building itself. In 1883 the building was effectively doubled to accommodate a new 10" refrecting telescope. In 1932-3, new steel domes were installed and extensive renovations undertaken under the direction of Mellor and Meigs, important regional architects who had designed the Hilles Building, and who worked sympathetically with the earlier sections of the observatory buildings. Walter Mellor was a member of the class of 1901. This work was endowed by Francis R. Strawbridge (class of 1887) and his family.
