Baldwin Hall is a three-story, 46,000 ft² (4,273 m²) dormitory on the campus of Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa. The building was originally built in the 1950s; an additional wing was added in the 1970s so that is has about 37,000 ft² (3,437 m²). The building contains approximately 100 double-occupancy student rooms; three common bathroom groups per floor; central study, lounge, and computer areas; and a laundry. Design for the renovation started in the winter of 1993; construction took place in the summer of 1994. The major goals of the renovation were: (1) to replace the entire building heating system (central boiler plant, distribution piping, and room heating terminals); (2) add a ventilation system within the building; (3) upgrade the building electrical system; (4) provide computer data cabling and cable TV wiring to each room; and, (5) improve room and hallway lighting and finishes.
