The campus of Bates College includes a 133-acre (54 ha) main area, in Lewiston, Maine, and which is maintained by Bates College. It also includes a 600-acre (240 ha) Bates-Morse Mountain Conservation Area, and an 80-acre (32 ha) Coastal Center fresh water habitat at Shortridge. The eastern campus is situated around Lake Andrews, where many residential halls are located. The earliest buildings of the college were directly designed by Boston architect Gridley J.F. Bryant, and subsequent buildings follow his overall architectural template. The quad of the campus connects academic buildings, athletics arenas, and residential halls. The overall architectural design of the college can be traced through the Colonial Revival architecture movement, and has distinctive neoclassical, Georgian, and Gothic features. Many buildings are named after prominent abolitionists, politicians, businessmen, alumni, and academics. (en) |
