1856 Orrington Ave. may be the smallest residence hall on campus, but it is considered a prime location by many students. With a cozy lounge, well-equipped kitchen, and game lounge in the lower level, it’s no wonder residents see it as a true campus home. Fun fact: Despite the building’s name, it is not on Orrington. Well, not any more. Orrington Avenue used to run through campus before the quads were formed between Emerson Street and University Place.
