Leazar Hall<\/h1>

Leazar Hall was completed in 1912 with Harry P.S. Keller serving as the architect. Named for Augustus Leazar, a state legislator from Iredell County who co-sponsored a bill in 1885 to establish an industrial school. While the first attempt was unsuccessful, a second attempt in 1887 passed, establishing the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts.<\/p>

The original building served as a dining hall, with additions added in 1922, 1945, and 1947. In the late 1960s, the School of Design was assigned a part of Leazar Hall for fundamentals studio courses. After the dining hall closed in 1970, the school was assigned the majority of the third and fourth floors.<\/p>

In 2006, a renovation by Cannon Architects was completed, which included extensive interior work, adding a stairway and elevator tower to the south elevation as well as opening up the main space to show exposed beams. In 2013, Cannon Architects added additional doors and partition walls to the third-floor studios.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\t \t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\t \n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n\t \n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n
