History
Kresge Centennial Hall (1955) was built to commemorate Northwestern's 100th anniversary and named for the Kresge Foundation (which gave $500,000 of the $2.4 million cost of the building). Designed by Holabird, Root & Burgee, it today houses the programs in comparative literary studies, art theory and practice, art history, and foreign languages. A four-story addition designed by DeStefano and Partners (2002) was built on the south side of Kresge Hall to provide additional faculty office space. See Crowe Hall, #634.
