From its beginning in 1906, the Department of Civil Engineering took up residence in Apperson Hall, which was built in 1900 at a cost of $25,289. A third floor was added in 1920. From the OSU Archives, here is a pictorial history of the building in its early days and a little recent history.
Apperson Hall is scheduled for extensive remodeling in late 2005, but the granite and sandstone exterior will remain, along with the many memories of generations of civil engineering students who have passed through its halls.
