West Hall

West Hall is a five-story university building at Kansas State University in Manhattan with walls of brown brick and limestone. Inside, classrooms, conference rooms, and administrative offices for university staff occupy all levels.

The building was constructed in 1966 during a major expansion program at Kansas State University. This construction phase shaped the campus development in the middle of the 20th century.

The building displays the characteristic architectural language of the campus with limestone details and rectangular window arrangements that fit into the university's design approach. These elements shape how the entire grounds look and feel.

The building is accessible from University Avenue through multiple entrances, with elevators and stairways connecting all five floors. Good accessibility and facilities make it easy to get around inside.

The building was constructed with local Kansas limestone, reflecting the region's geological materials. This material choice connects the architecture closely to Manhattan's natural surroundings.
