The building was a prominent architectural landmark designed by Bruce Price in the Richardsonian Romanesque style. \u003cbr\u003eBuilt in 1889, it served as a recitation hall to help ease overcrowding on campus. \u003cbr\u003eDespite its distinctive architecture, the building was unpopular due to its location at a busy intersection and was eventually demolished in 1926, only 36 years after its completion. \u003cbr\u003eThe site is now occupied by Bingham Hall, a larger dormitory that is part of Yale's Old Campus expansion. \u003cbr\u003eThe postcard features handwritten text at the bottom, which reads \"aletta \u0026amp; I are here today.
