Smith Memorial Hall, Historic university hall at University of Illinois, US
Smith Memorial Hall features a 900-seat recital hall with mahogany woodwork and a three-manual Casavant Frères organ at the University of Illinois.
Built between 1917 and 1921, Smith Memorial Hall became the first building on campus funded entirely through private donation from Captain Thomas J Smith.
The Memorial Room, furnished with crystal chandeliers, provides space for chamber music performances, student recitals, and musical instruction throughout the academic year.
Located at 805 South Mathews Avenue in Urbana, the building contains 49 practice rooms across its second and third floors for student use.
The building earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996 for its Beaux-Arts architectural design by James M White.
