Botanic Gardens
\n-“The site he chose was bisected, at the time, by a small creek that flowed from a tamarack swamp east of where Morrill Hall now stands, crossed the “sacred space” north of College Hall, and drained into the Red Cedar. Because the site was so low and marshy, Beal correctly surmised that it offered natural insurance against buildings ever replacing his beloved gardens. (His concern was, perhaps, warranted—a site dedicated to the Botany school in 1888 became College Delta just nine years later.)[Lautner, p. 59]”
\n-“The creek still flows through Beal’s garden, which today is the oldest continuously operated botanical garden in the United States, but during the period from 1888 to 1914, the ravine was incrementally filled in and the water diverted into an underground culvert. Drain covers mark the path of the culvert as it meanders to an outflow at the Red Cedar River. During the spring thaw, the creek occasionally reveals itself as the snow above it melts more quickly than in the rest of the garden, leaving a green stripe through the middle of the white snow.”

-College Hall originally held the chemical labs, but the building wasn’t large enough and the lab activities often produced bad smells and gases. Chemical Laboratory was built in 1871 and was the first dedicated lab building on campus. It had a ventilation chimney which at the time was revolutionary, and was designed in order to remove fumes and support positive airflow. Due to its boxy structure it was nicknamed “Chemical Fort”.

“Last year (1904) and year before, the garden was considerably enlarged. Top soil was scraped off into piles, the high banks adjoining used to fill in; and deep and extensive excavations were made on the lower side, after which the top dirt was replaced. In this way, some of the lower portions of the garden have been raised four or five feet and brought up to or above high water mark”. He further notes that “The scheme is, briefly, to plant on low land nothing that will not endure a summer overflow, and to raise all other land, if not already high enough, to high water mark or above it.”
