Anthony and Louise Viaer Alumni Hall, Prairie School architecture university building at Huston-Tillotson University in Austin, United States.
Anthony and Louise Viaer Alumni Hall is a university building at Huston-Tillotson University designed in Prairie School architecture. The structure displays characteristic horizontal lines and deep overhanging eaves that define this architectural approach, containing spaces for meetings and administrative offices.
The building was constructed in 1914 during the early growth of the university. It was later recognized on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 for its architectural and educational significance.
Students at Huston-Tillotson University made the bricks used in the building's construction, showing how the institution valued hands-on learning. You can see this craftsmanship in the walls themselves.
The building is located on the Huston-Tillotson University campus and can be viewed from the outside during campus visits. Plan your visit during quieter times when classes are not in session for a better experience.
Anthony E. Viaer, a graduate from the class of 1958, funded a million-dollar scholarship program that helped support many students through their education. His generous gift is commemorated through the building's name.
