Old Power Plant

Athabasca Hall

Built in 1911, for many years Athabasca Hall was the centre of campus, serving as residence, classroom, laboratory, office, library, and dining room. Renovated in 1977, it currently houses University Offices but remains a touchstone for generations of former students.
