Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Originally constructed as two separate buildings (e.g. the "North College" & "South College") in 1825. On 29 June 1825, General Lafayette laid the original cornerstone to what is today known as of the University of Vermont "Old Mill" building, on the "South College" portion of the building, overshadowing the laying of the cornerstone to "North College" by Gov. Van Ness on 26 April of that year.[1] The "Middle College" was built between the two buildings (separated by 8' fire breaks) in 1829. In 1846, the three buildings were joined together to form the singular "Old Mill" building.[2]
