Andrews Hall

Andrews Hall
“

The sinks in the room are fantastic, and the rooms are incredibly spacious with HUGE windows. It's also really nice how almost all of the rooms open up right onto the hallway, which makes socializing much easier. I also really like how close Andrews is to Thayer Street.

”
Built in 1947, Andrews Hall is named in honor of Elisha Benjamin Andrews, president of Brown University from 1889 to 1898. Andrews is nestled between Miller and Metcalf and is divided into two halves, East (even numbered rooms) and West (odd numbered rooms), each of which is serviced by an elevator.

Andrews Hall contains several first-year units surrounding three floors of upper-class singles. The rooms are large and pleasant, and each has a sink with a medicine chest. A formal dining room is located on the first floor. Once used for daily meals, this dining room is now only used for special occasions and events.
