THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON

Cascade Annex


Architect: Ellis F. Lawrence.

History


Former name: Physical Plant Shops.
Finished by May 1946, this building paralleled the Press Building. At one time it housed the Museum of Natural History and Herbarium. Onyx Bridge now rests atop part of it. Lawrence was no longer associated with a firm when he designed this utilitarian building.
