Workshop Item Info
- Title:
- Workshop
- Description:
- The Workshop was initially built at what is now the west wing of the Laboratory of Mechanics—subsequently moved around 50-60 feet north. President Welch expressed the need to build a workshop large enough to accommodate students who take the course in Mechanic Arts. A 30 x 50 feet frame workshop was constructed with an engine house containing two laundry rooms. When the Workshop was moved in 1885, the laundry room wing was torn down and rebuilt. The building was razed in 1898 after the completion of the new Foundry and the New Carpenter shop that year. Credit: The Iowa State University Campus and Its Buildings
