Abstract

Black and white print of the construction of Ben M. Cherrington Hall on the campus of the University of Denver in Denver, Colorado, taken from the east, with Aspen Apartments and Mount Evans in the background. A large crane is lowering a piece of the building down to a group of workers standing in the middle of the construction site. Cherrington Hall was built in 1966 to house the Graduate School of International Studies (GSIS) and is an example of International Style architecture. Local Denver architect Edwin A. Francis was selected for the design of the building, which was built by the Pinkard Construction Company. Perkins and Will Architects took over the project when Edwin Francis died during construction.
