UTEP's Old Main Building - El Paso, Texas

Buildings have stories to tell and Old Main, the oldest building on the UTEP campus, has more than most. Nestled against the mountain on Circle Drive, Old Main was built in 1917 and was the first of the original five buildings built on the current campus. Between 1917 and 2012 Old Main has served a variety of purposes and housed several different schools, students, and faculty. Having been the first completed structure, Main facilitated classroom instruction, faculty offices, and administrative personnel until other buildings were complete. http://transformations.utep.edu/?p=872
