Griffin Hall was patterned after a Charles Bulfinch building at Andover Theological Seminary. The building reflects the Federalist influence in its Palladian west window, Doric entrance columns and beautifully windowed roof dormer. It originally had a double entrance and stood near Main Street. Griffin was moved to the northeast and remodeled in 1904. Originally called “the brick chapel, ” Griffin served as the college chapel until 1859 when Goodrich Hall was built. At that time, the building was re-named Griffin Hall. A library was built in 1847. In 1997 it was re-dedicated after a total renovation which turned it into the most technologically advanced classroom building on campus. The air conditioned building is currently used for classroom work and special meetings.
