Now known as Fairbanks Hall, this building was constructed in 1892 as a men's dormitory and was originally named Cauthorn Hall. Women lived in the dormitory from 1912 until the early 1930s, when it was converted into a classroom building. The building is now home to the Art Department.

The tower in the background, on Adams Street between 1st and 2nd streets, held two 30,000-gallon water tanks for the city water system. Photo was from the Tom Warren Collection.
