History edit
Jefferson Hall was constructed in 1916.[2] It operated as an apartment through the 1980s, but was demolished in about 1990.
Description edit
Jefferson Hall was a four-story red brick apartment building built in the "garden court" style, where apartments are arranged in a U-shape around a central courtyard.[2] This arrangement gave tenants more window space and a courtyard view. The building was trimmed with stone.[2] The main lobby was located in the center of the U, and two commercial stores flanked the entryway. Projecting bay windows were located above, on the second through fourth floors.[2]
