Connecticut Hall, Yale University

September in My Life often includes a photo hike around Yale University.

This is the oldest building on campus, Connecticut Hall completed in 1752.
Nathan Hale had a room here in 1773. Yale was founded in 1701 when New
Haven was a small city in one of the 13 Original Colonies. The campus
is very photogenic, I used photos of Yale for the Scavenger Challenge.

Love that building. I remember walking around this campus when my parents took me there when I was looking at colleges. Ivy League stuff here.

Nice shot of this historic old building. In 1752 it must have been the largest structure in New Haven.
