A picture of the Hayes-Healy Building?

December 20, 2005 10:38 AM

I need a picture of the (intact) Hayes-Healy Building from DePaul University in Chicago.

The building was recenty torn down and i am looking for a hi-res image of it still standing for a piece I am doing on building preservation. My own cursory web search has netted nothing... anyone have any ideas on where to look, or does anybody out there have any good early/historical images of the building?

thanks!

Is this the Hayes-Healy athletic center? Their campus map has pop-ups with photographs on them. It's not huge, but it's not nothing: 338 x 173; 49K.

A good place to check, with more information than you ever would have wanted, would be the University libraries or archives.

You might consider contacting the DePaul University Library. Or the university's press office.

Go talk to DePaul Library's special collections. According to this file (page 50) they have a picture of the building, which used to be called Wangler Hall, dated 1948. You can give them a call at [phone].
