Winslow Chemical Laboratory
Winslow Chemical Laboratory, Historical chemical laboratory at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, United States.
The Winslow Chemical Laboratory features a three-story brick structure with stone trimmings, constructed using butternut, chestnut, and black walnut materials.
Built in 1866 with funding from John F. Winslow, the laboratory suffered fire damage in 1884 and 1904, leading to reconstruction and expansion.
The laboratory served as an educational center for chemistry studies at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, accommodating forty students in specialized workspaces.
Located at 105 Eighth Street in Troy, the building now houses research groups from Cognitive Science and Computer Science departments.
The third floor contains the original chemical library established through donations from John F. Winslow, the fifth president of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
