Jones Hall

This national historic landmark was built in 1906 and achieved notoriety as the first building with a steel structure in Chicago. It houses 200 of our students and is located at State and Madison Streets at 7 West Madison, the exact center of the city. The corner of State and Madison was historically known in the early 20th century as the world's busiest intersection. Jones Hall is also located a short distance from Chicago's latest architectural accomplishment, Millennium Park. Jones Hall has a studio (dry & wet material spaces), computer lab, laundry room, and bike storage.

  • Configurations shown are for Jones Hall, floors 3-14.
