History:
Guggenheim was constructed in 1912 during the presidency of Zachariah X. Snyder. After suffering one of the worst fires in campus history in 1951, the building was repaired and used for classes and offices for many years. A major renovation, completed in 2002, restored the building to its original beauty, with gleaming wood floors and large, light-filled rooms.
