PLANS FOR THE ADDITION TO THE PHARMACY BUILDING (4) The plans for the Pharmacy building as submitted by Supervising Architect White. M y understanding is that he and Dean Day fully approve these plans as submitted by the Architect. December 2, 1925 President David Kinley, 3$$ Administration Building Dear President Kinley: I am enclosing the plans and proposed west facade of the School of Pharmacy building as prepared by Schmidt, Garden & Martin. I think these plans are a very happy solution of the problem. The new building willfillin the entire space between the present south building and the Bakers' building and when either of these buildings is torn down, the same style of building can be continued, ultimately giving a continuous facade about ten feet back from the lot line. This design is in harmony with the design of the hospital group which is an advantage in identifying the building as a part of the University of Illinois group.
