About Adams
Historic Adams Residence Hall was constructed in the 1920s and still remains one of the most attractive campus buildings thanks to its European-inspired architecture.
Adams is located across the street from Carson’s Market dining center, and a block away from Steenbock Library and many classroom buildings, which makes it a great location. Between Lake Mendota and Observatory Hill, there are also plenty of scenic outdoor spaces to enjoy.
