Administration Building/University Hall
 
Ottawa University’s Administration Building (then referred to as “University Hall”) was first starting to be built in 1898. The north wing was completed in 1900, and the south wing was completed in 1902, right before disaster struck.

On September 10th, 1902, the building caught fire leaving only the walls left behind. This was the day before classes were scheduled to start for the school year. After a note was sent to John D. Rockefeller, a donation of $25,000 was given to Ottawa for the rebuild. This is equivalent to approximately $941,790 today. The rebuild was started in 1903 and completed in 1905. The President of OU at the time was John D. S. Riggs who served the University from 1896 to 1905.
