DescriptionColor postcard featuring obscured view of Winants Hall. Winants Hall was Rutgers first dormitory, constructed in 1890. It is named for Garret E. Winants, a wealthy philanthropist from Bayonne who in 1889 joined the Board of Trustees and a year later presented a sketch of a proposed dormitory building and a gift $75,000 to pay for its construction. Winants Hall served as the sole dormitory for Rutgers until 1915, when John Ford Hall was constructed. Queens Campus, currently within College Avenue Campus, is bound by Somerset Street to the east, George Street (north), College Avenue (south) and Hamilton Street (west), and contains several of the university's oldest buildings.
