Description
Penn Hall, during construction, designed by Architect A. T. Simmons, stylistically influenced by the Prairie School with strong horizontal lines and a low pitched roof, constructed 1916-1917. Originally the building had metal windows, deep-red rough brick exterior with white stone trim and a red tile roof. Central tower is significant with high parapet accents. It was difficult to find workers and materials to build Penn Hall due to World War I shortages.
