Johnston Hall, University building and National Historic Place at Marquette University, Milwaukee, United States.

Johnston Hall features brick construction with Gothic Revival details, including pointed arches, decorative moldings, and ornamental elements throughout its exterior walls.

Robert A. Johnston, a baking industry leader, donated $100,000 in 1906 for the construction of this building at Marquette College to address student capacity needs.

The building contains the J. William & Mary Diederich College of Communication, where students engage in journalism, media production, and communication studies.

Located at 1121 West Wisconsin Avenue, Johnston Hall maintains regular hours from Monday through Friday, providing access to classrooms, faculty offices, and media facilities.

On May 15, 2018, the building demonstrated its structural integrity when it withstood a direct collision from a Milwaukee County Transit System bus.
