This image is a photograph used in the book Auburn, a Pictorial History of the Loveliest Village by Mickey Logue and Jack Simms, 3rd edition, 2013, depicting the history of the city and the University. From page 43: The main building, later named Samford Hall, is shown under construction in 1888-90 after Old Main burned in a fire that started in the state chemist's laboratory in the basement on June 24, 1887. Samford housed administrative and faculty offices, and classes were taught there from 1890 until about 1969. While Samford was being built, classes were held next door in Langdon Hall, hidden from view here by the Chemistry Building (now Hargis Hall) at right. Hargis was completed while the Samford was still under construction. Photo source: Auburn University Archives. |
