Kenney Gym, Historic gymnasium at University of Illinois, Urbana, United States
The Kenney Gym consists of two interconnected buildings with a Renaissance Revival style structure constructed in 1902 and an annex built in 1890.
The facility, formerly known as Military Drill Hall and Men's Gymnasium, earned its place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
The gymnasium hosted the Illinois High School Association basketball tournament state finals from 1919 to 1925, shaping local sports traditions.
The Kenney Gym Annex functions as a multi-purpose arena with 5,000 seats, serving university athletics and University Laboratory High School activities.
Nathan Clifford Ricker designed the 1890 annex with a column-free open space for military drilling, which later adapted for gymnasium purposes.
