The picture in the cen- ter is from the first photo- graph ever taken of the main building. The building used in 1888 was the same as in 1880, with an additional wing on the west side. An auditor- ium, known as the first Albert Taylor Hall, was later added to the building on the east side. It stood where the Sunken Garden now is. 4
