Mcmillan Hall

McMillan Hall, which is now building on State street, opposite the High School, will be completed by the middle of April next. It is being constructed under the direction of Senator McMillan, of Detroit, for the Tappan Presbyterian Association of Ann Arbor, and has cost, up to date, #15,000. The architect is a Detroit gentleman, and the workmen are also sent by Senator McMillan from that city. On the first floor will be found the reception room and library, up stairs an audience room with a seating capacity of 300. The "gym.," which, of course, will not be wanting, and which we are assüred will be a model of its kind, will occupy the basement section. The architectural connection of McMillan Hall with the older (Sackett's) hall, on the corner of State and Huron streets, is to be noticed. A broad cloister connects the two builidiugs, thus affording a complete promenade between them. The hall will be furnished, we understand, by the association, and will be ready for occupancy the flrst of the next collegiate year. It is to be not at all exclusive in its privileges. Designed as a club house, it will be made attractive as such, and will offer its hospitality both to young men of Ann Arbor and to students of U. of M. The training course of free lectures now givcn in the Presbyterian church will be offered in the audience hall just mentioned. Altogether, it will make an attractive and favorite place of resort for young men.
